Tricyclic antidepressant (TCAs) class is most closely linked with anticholinergic side effects.

Amitriptyline, amoxapine, clomipramine and protriptyline are Tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) that are used to treat chronic pain. Amitriptyline and nortriptyline among these medications provide the most reassuring safety information during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

In vitro and in vivo, TCAs are powerful inhibitors of norepinephrine and/or serotonin reuptake. In addition, several TCAs are known to block sodium, calcium, alpha-1 adrenoceptors, histamine (H1) receptors, and muscarinic cholinergic receptors. Thought to be responsible for their unfavourable anticholinergic, antihistaminergic, and cardiotoxic side effects rather than their antidepressant effects, these neurotransmitter receptor actions.

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Sustainable nutrition means eating foodstuff from sources that protect the environment and food stocks in the long term. Much of our foodstuff unfortunately does not come from sustainable sources. If you are a teacher, you must start introducing children to the topics of environmental science and agriculture so they can understand the relationship between environment and agriculture.
