Hi Willyee,
I imagine I could handle 100mg in one dose without too much trouble, but as you know there's a lot of individual variability between people. I'm not really sure what the implications are.
I'm 6'3, 235lbs myself, so it seems we are similar in body mass indexes.
What seemed to make the Parnate better for me was adding vitamin B6(200mg), B12(2mg), and folic acid(5mg). I could tell the folic acid made a huge difference when I started it a few weeks ago. I'm sure you may have heard that MAOi's can reduce the B6 in your system which may indicate a special requirement.
