Since 1959...
The ORIGINAL and BEST...
ALL-AMERICAN ANTIDEPRESSANT MEDICATION
The biochemical PROTOTYPE for ALL MODERN ANTIDEPRESSANTS!
GENUINE...
MONOAMINE OXIDASE INHIBITORS!
Parnate -- Nardil
Strict (but reasonable) attention to diet and medication interactions essential!
(Make sure your local emergency center has your chart and phentolamine in stock in the event of a hypertensive crisis.)
UNMATCHED EFFICACY (except by ECT) for TREATMENT-RESISTANT DEPRESSION!
***
MAOI's aren't magical, whatever their users may tell you, but I think many lives would be saved if psychiatrists were more willing to prescribe them to patients who were unresponsive to modern AD's.I strongly recommend looking into them (and tricyclics as well) if you have tried the modern AD's without success.
