> Just got an rx from my pdoc for Nardil. My pdoc indicated that I must wait a full 2 weeks from when I stopped all AD's. This will add an additional 2 weeks as I have to taper off of lamictal, lithium, prozac and remeron. Any comments or suggestions.

> FSTYou will want to cease Prozac ASAP as it has such a hugely long half life. You would want to ramp up Nardil slowly for the first 2 weeks because Prozac can last as long as a month after you have taken it. I don't know much about lamictal & lithium, Remeron is probably OK with MAOI's.
Good luck with Nardil, it's supposed to be one of the very best meds available. Get the doc to give you a scipt for some BP lowering drugs incase of a hypertensive crisis.
