I am in the UK and have been taking 450mg Moclobemide on prescription for a few months and I am now due to increase my dose to 600mg. (As I am naturally hypertensive I have to be careful because Moclobemide still reacts mildly with tyramine to raise blood pressure.)
Unlike many meds I have tried, there seems to be surprisingly little about Moclobemide on the net. I think that this is because the US has not approved it as a med.
I have heard that it is available in many countries (like Australia, Canada, South Africa, Europe - I think especially Finland for some reason) so I would guess that there is quite a lot of info to be had if only I knew where to get it!
I would DEARLY like to know any good sources of info on the Net. In particular I would really like to get a drug mongraph or data sheet on Moclobemide.
Also I am starting to poop-out on this med. I have heard that this is common with Moclobemide and I recall someone here saying that there were one or two augmenting meds which are often used to overcome Moclobemide poop-out. Can anyone remind me which augmentation meds these were as I am starting to relapse quite badly.
Thanks in advance for any info.
