There are also several chemically unrelated tetracyclic antibiotics based on Tetracycline.
Tetracyclic antidepressants (TeCAs) are a class of antidepressant drugs. They are named after their molecular structure, which contains four rings of atoms. They are closely related to the tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs).
List of TeCAs
- Pharmaceuticals
- Amoxapine (Asendin, Asendis, Defanyl, Demolox, Moxadil)
- Maprotiline (Deprilept, Ludiomil, Psymion)
- Mianserin (Tolvon)
- Mirtazapine (Remeron, Remergil, Zispin, Avanza)
- Research Chemicals

The values above are expressed as equilibrium dissociation constants. It should be noted that less is more. SERT, NET, and DAT correspond to the abilities of the compounds to inhibit the reuptake of serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine, respectively. The other values correspond to their affinity for various receptors.
