Does Nardil or Parnate help w/ migraines? I suffer w/ 4 or 5 per month. Effexor made them even worse. Now I take Celexa w/ limited results and am considering Parnate. If it can help w/ the migraines it is even more attractive.
Love and luck,
Carly
> That's great! I'm so glad to hear you're doing better. I followed your posts for awhile when you had to go off the other AD (Effexor?) and wait, then go on the Nardil - and wait. (I've been incommunicado for awhile...too many migraines)

> I recently started Nardil myself. I'm up to 60 mg. (30 mg 2x day) I'm actually shooting for a decrease in migraines, in a roundabout way, so I haven't noticed an improvement yet. The Neurologist said it would take at least 6 weeks before I starting seeing any improvement in that area.
