Which medication is known by the brand name Desiramine?

Desiramine is the brand name for Norpramin. This medication is a tricyclic antidepressant primarily used to treat major depressive disorder. Its classification as a tricyclic antidepressant involves its action on neurotransmitters such as norepinephrine and serotonin in the brain, which helps to alleviate symptoms of depression.

The other options represent different medications with distinct uses and mechanisms: Desmopressin is a synthetic form of vasopressin used in conditions like diabetes insipidus; Tofranil is another tricyclic antidepressant but is known by that brand name and not Desiramine; Anafranil, known as clomipramine, is primarily used for obsessive-compulsive disorder rather than general depression. Thus, Norpramin aligns correctly with the brand name Desiramine.
