- Tricyclic, anti-depressant drugs were developed from the observation that some tricyclic, anti-psychotic drugs elevated a patient’s mood. Identify the structural features of a tricyclic drug that were found to affect its action as a pure anti-depressant or a mixed anti-psychotic/anti-depressant agent and comment on the structural modifications that can be made to such an anti-depressant drug whilst retaining the essential pharmacophore.arrow_forwardName three biologically active peptides.
