| The SSRIs are boasting fewer side effects than the monoamine oxidase inhibitors and tricyclic anti-depressants. Tricyclic antidepressants (named for their chemical structure) are more commonly used for treatment of major depressions than are monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs); but MAOIs are often helpful in so-called "atypical" depressions in which there are symptoms like oversleeping, anxiety, panic attacks, and phobias. These include two classes of antidepressants -- tricyclics and monoamine oxidase inhibitors -- and three tranquilizers classed as benzodiazepines. |
