Side effects I have experienced on Nardil:
Upset stomach and bloating ( lasted about two months)
Insomnia: On 30mg, I was sleeping about 4-5 hours a night. On 45mg, I am now sleeping 7-8 hours a night.
Daytime drowsiness ( significant at 30mg, negligible at 45)
Orthostatic hypotension ( significant for about three weeks at 45 – fixed it by increasing salt intake)
Food and carbohydrate craving ( I've managed to control this by following an Atkins diet)
Decreased libido, difficulty achieving orgasm ( more noticeable at 45 – still working on this one)
You would think with all of the side effects, I would have given up long ago! They have not been as bad as they sound, and the alternative ( severe depression/anxiety ) is worse!
