To Joe Schmoe:

Many, if not most, of the physically-expressed side effects are probably brain-driven, as in a stroke victim who can write fluently but has trouble speaking -- even though the muscles that control speech are intact.
To Mitch -
I hadn't heard anything about the Parnate or Nardil patches. That would be great for a lot of people. If the MAOI never enters the gut, I belive there's no chance for tyramine inhibition.
I know that a poster here, Adam, was in the clinical trials for a selegiline patch (at high doses which would necessitate food restrictions if taken orally).To me the most exciting news is the phase II (or is it III) trials of the reversible (no food restrictions, ostensibly low-side-effect) MAOI befloxatone. So far it is reported to be about as effective as Nardil, and much more effective than the currently=marketed reversible MAOI moclobemide.
