Hi,
Hope this will be of some help. It's great that you're going to give Parnate a try. I've considered this drug to be a lifesaver for about 20 years now.But there are a number of other meds out there--such as SSRIs, Wellbutrin, and Effexor-- that you definitely can NOT take while on MAOIs. You definitely CAN take a benzo drug such as Klonopin or Xanax. I've been doing that and these can actually solve the problem of insomnia that Parnate can cause in some people.
Sorry, I don't know anything about the other drugs you mentioned, but be sure you get a definitive yes or no before starting the Parnate.
