> I also researched side effects of all three MAOIs, and it seems that the side effect profile of Marplan is more benign and tolerable than that of Nardil. Conversely, some of the side effects/problems I've seen reported with Nardil got me concerned, such as higher risk of liver toxicity and somewhat greater likelihood of hypertensive crisis on Nardil.
Hi cubbybear,Everything I've read has said that Parnate has the greatest likelihood of hypertensive crisis (or are you just comparing Nardil with Marplan here?)
Also, since Marplan is also a hydrazine, I assumed it had just as much liver toxicity potential as Nardil. Am I wrong here?
I'm not trying to nitpick here. I just really want to get my facts straight since I'm getting closer to choosing one of the MAOIs myself.
Thanks,
Kara
