In reply to Nardil + Parnate - Why not mix?, posted by Carlos on May 24, 2003, at 21:08:27

I agree, studies SHOULD be done on this...and I have heard of someone taking Nardil a.m. and Parnate p.m. No probs.
But be careful mate, I've also heard that one person, who was only swapping from MAOI to MAOI (we are talking the old ones here, not Moclobemide) had one day off. They had a stroke. Also another did the same thing and had a hypertensive crises.
It's good you raised this issue. I am going to do some study on this.
Be safe, and contact Dr. before you do anything!
