> After having tried every antidepressant there is, I finally found the right one: moclobemide. I received it from Farmacia Cerati. Any questions about moclo I would be happy to answer. Hope you all are well...
Hi Sal.John's descriptions are accurate. One nice spin that can be put on just about any antidepressant is that it is absolutely a miracle drug for at least some people. If you do experience diminishing returns with moclobemide and fail to find a workable augmentation strategy (lithium might be worth considering), keep an eye out for another RIMA called befloxatone. I would probably make it my very next choice were it available. I believe Sanofi is pushing it to phase III trials in the US. I wouldn't look at moclobemide as being the archetype RIMA from which to extrapolate its trial results to the group in general. It is probably unfortunate that moclobemide was the first to be brought to market.
Wishing you well...
