You might go back and read Burns again -- I'm guessing that he didn't say that 20 mg is generally a sufficient dose.
Hi Elizabeth--thanks for all your input. Burns does say that he will sometimes go to 30 mg. Parnate but very rarely to 40 or more. He emphasized that many respond so well to 10 or 20 that they do not need to go any higher. I was hoping to be one of those people. One thing that is unclear in Burns is how long to give it at 20 mg before determining you need more (my fam. phys. says 2 weeks). At this point I don't even notice partial benefits which makes me wonder if it just needs more time...Lisa
