It was the FIRST antidepressant and I'm curious to know where it is still being used. MAOI's of the same type are still used and several people here can testify to their effectiveness.

Yes , I was aware about the discontinuation of Marsilid in USA , I should have precised the question is aimed at people living outside USA .The reason why my pdoc has chosen Marsilid is that it is the only MAOI non-selective & irreversible available here (France) , there are other MAOI available here but they are selective and reversible and therefore less effective.
