Yeah, there are actually quite a few drugs that are contraindicative to Parnate that doctors are now prescribing. Once again, I think the pharmaceutical companies are extremely conservative to avoid lawsuits. But if you look at actual practice vs. theory, many 'taboo' drugs work just fine with Parnate. Of course I would absolutely only take something with a doctor's guidance. I've heard of others taking Trazodone too. I think if the doctor is monitoring closely, it's okay to try.
