Uses
Apo-Clomipramine (Clomipramine Hydrochloride) belongs to a class of medicines referred to as tricyclic antidepressants, and it acts on chemicals in the brain to treat a broad range of conditions, including OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder), depression, narcolepsy, panic disorder and chronic pain.

Adults treating depression, obsessive compulsive disorder and panic disorder are often told to take 25mg (one tablet) just before going to bed. The doctor may adjust this for maintenance treatment, and during the first two weeks of taking the medicine, it is possible that the patient may be told to take 100mg per day. Under no circumstances should patients exceed the dosage that their doctor tells them to take.
