Its been many years since I've taken Nardil, but I too developed a rash. At first, Nardil was my wonder drug. I felt absolutely amazing on it for a period of two months. In retrospect, I probably was a bit manic. Unfortunately, the effects slowly dissipated and I tried increasing the dossage. I developed hand tremors so severe that I had trouble feeding myself. That's also when the rash appeared. Since the positive effects had fully dissipated by this time, I stopped using the drug altogehter.
I did try Nardil again several years later, but it just didn't have the pop that it once had, albeit fleeting. I would recommend lowering the dossage and supplementing. Check out a few of the past posting for possible supplementary medications. As I'm assure you are aware, supplementing while on Nardil can be very dangerous and must be done under a DR's care. However, I believe the past posting will provide creative suggestions that my indeed be safe and not tried or even considered by your Dr. Good luck my friend!
