Protriptyline is almost entirely noradrenergic in action and has a very long half–life. It is often considered the most energizing of the tricyclic antidepressants. Its antidepressant effect tends to have a rapid onset, even shorter than a week. Because of its stimulating nature protriptyline has sometimes been used treat ADHD, narcolepsy and hypersomnia.

Protriptyline is only available in the United States. It is inexpensive.</p>
