> Absolutely! Parnate has been my salvation for severe depression for ages and it has excellent anxiolytic qualities. Your effective dose should be no lower than 30 mg./day. When used with a benzo drug like Klonopin (Clonazepam) you probably have the best of both worlds to counteract depression and anxiety. Just be aware that you can easily develop a dependency on Klonopin after a short time, and should never stop either of these drugs cold turkey. Any good doctor will give you a tapering off schedule if and when you decide to stop taking them.
