Physician Insight & Safety Protocol

Dr. PRABHAKAR REDDY (DHA: 61713011): “As a psychiatrist, I rely on desipramine TDM to personalise dosing and prevent cardiotoxic supratherapeutic levels. The LC‑MS/MS method gives me absolute confidence in the result, allowing safe dose adjustments. However, results must always be interpreted in the full clinical context.”

⚠ Medication Warning: Do not discontinue prescribed desipramine or modify your dosage without consulting your treating physician. Abrupt changes can cause severe withdrawal or relapse.

Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags

  • Exclusion: Current use of SST gel barrier tubes; serum not separated within 2 hours; specimen received thawed after improper freezing.
  • ER Alert: If the patient exhibits new‑onset arrhythmia, severe dizziness, seizures, or altered mental status, order an immediate ECG and plasma level STAT—do not wait for routine TDM.
  • Pre‑test Requirement: Fasting stable‑state specimen collected >12 hours post‑dose, accompanied by a fully completed Test Send Out Consent Form (Form 35).

Pre‑Test Instructions & Sample Handling

  • Draw 4 mL (2 mL min.) serum in a plain Red Top (No Additive) tube. Do not use SST gel separator tubes.
  • Centrifuge and transfer separated serum into a screw‑capped vial immediately. Refrigerate or freeze and ship with validated cold packs.
  • Specimen must be collected more than 12 hours after the last oral dose (trough level).
  • Submit a duly filled Test Send Out Consent Form (Form 35). Missing consent will delay processing.
