> Funny you mention this...I recall a post about someone loving this stuff...just recently it was posted. I confess I know nothing of it...what's the other name for it?
Generic name is Pramipexole.
> Thanks so much dude...I'll be doing some research on Mirapex.Check out my post below..things are looking so good at the moment I might not need to augment.Yeah. There is something to your theory that 90 may have been worse than 60. I recall djmmm saying something to this effect before that for some people more is not better. Also, if excess 5ht is a problem, 90 may have been causing excess 5ht.
> BTW, are you going to give Parnate a shot? I think I asked b4 but forgot to check for your reply.
As crazy as it sounds, I do not want to try an MAOI for a while because I am afraid it WILL work. You see, I am so scared of poopout that I fear that if I get on an MAOI and then it poops out, I will never be able to find a suitable replacement. So, I intend to try several things before an MAOI. I will probably start with Parnate just because of its slightly favorable s/e profile over Nardil. Esp. the fact that it does not seem to cause as much sedation. My current med regime is Effexor 225 and WB 300, I am probably going to replace WB with mirapex OR possibly add in Lamictal to see if my doctor's hints that I may be Bipolar II are true. Good luck and I am glad that Nardil is back for you. Your posts have always been an inspiration because it reminds me that if all else fails, Nardil is there.
