My pdoc felt it was best for me to get off of it and back on Parnate ASAP, hence the short washout. (This is not SOP -- does that answer your Q, Scott? And no, you shouldn't mix them!)

I'm on Parnate, but will probably be trying Marplan soon. I've been having sleep problems and wonder if they're related.
