In reply to Can you SPLIT Nardil pills?, posted by bipolarspectrum on January 24, 2004, at 21:38:44
I used Nardil many years ago for about 4 years. I thought it worked pretty well for certain problems like depersonalization/derealization however it made me sort of hypomanic, could not sleep and I gained about 25 lbs. I tried to go off quickly-MISTAKE! I had the most horrendous nightmares, withdrawal symptoms etc. This is what I did which worked great. I was taking 4 pills/day (I think it must have been somewhere between 60-80mg/day). I cut the pills into quarters and reduced 1/4 pill every two weeks. It took along time but it worked with no bad effects. The weight started dropping like you wouldn't believe. I've since had to go on other meds and I have nothing bad to say about Nardil however for me there were too many side effects. Good luck Tiss
