> Hi again G,
> That's just what I bumped into - use of MAOI's such as Nardil and Parnate is *contraindicated* if also using beta2 agonist inhalers (short acting like Albuterol, long acting like Serevent). My asthma doc, pharmacist & pdoc all say this is true.

Do you know where Ed-UK posted this information? I'm not sure if it's what I've seen of his already or if I've missed something. I'd like to have it to show my doc.
