Protriptyline (Vivactil) is a tricyclic antidepressant (TCA), specifically a secondary amine , indicated for depression and ADHD. Unique among the tricyclics, protriptyline tends to be energizing instead of sedating, and it is sometimes used in narcolepsy to achieve a wakefulness-promoting effect. [ citation needed ] (The other TCAs tend to be sedating and therefore are often taken in the evening.)
