Hi
I know I am not the norm when it comes to MAOIs. I take 80 mg of Parnate and can eat whatever I want with the sole exception being soy sauce.
Anyhow, I have taken Neo Citron and Nyquil while taking Parnate and nothing happened.
Sometimes I wonder if there is something wrong with me. I have been over 30 meds and they either don't work or they poop out on me. And it's not that I am a large person either. I'm actually really petite. so I don't know why. I'm on 80 mg of Parnate and still have depression (but not the suicidal depression I used to have).
Sorry for rambling.....
Maxime> I've usually just toughed it out myself when I've had a cold or the flu, so the restrictions on those meds were really of no consequence to me. You can take plain Benadryl or another pure antihistamine, for whatever good it might do for your symptoms, but I believe that all of the decongestants are out.
