> Actually, Phenelzine (Nardil) has a slightly higher rate of hypertensive crisis, but Parnate, on average, causes more hypertension than Nardil(go figure)... I have *never* had a Hypertensive Reaction to any food, alcohol, or medication (pseudofed, nasal sprays, etc)...and Ive been taking a MAOI for about 3 years.Interesting....I have noticed spontaneous rises in my bp on Nardil without eating offending foods. Would THIS be less likely to happen on Tranylcypromine?
