Brief Answer:
Restart tofranil.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome here.

I understand your concerns.

If torfanil worked well for you, you can restart it.

Few of the drugs you have mentioned in your medication history. These are the newer ones. There are some more new drugs. But I would recommend you to take tofranil again.

Talk to your doctor about this as it is a prescription drug.

Feel free to ask further for more queries.
Thanks.
