So I just came back from my psychiatrist and I will be starting Remeron in a few weeks. It was between that and Lexapro. He seemed to think that Selegiline doesn't help many people and so is hesitant about having me go on the Selegiline patch. I think I will have to do some research about that though. Hmmm... I'm glad that your sister has found something that works for her and she must be very excited about the patch!

> my sister had the same problem with Parnate, she had a hypertensive crisis. Her doctor tried her on Selegiline (Parkinsons Med) and it has helped tremendously without the hyperstensive crisis'. Keep in mind you still have to worry about Tyramine but I think it is less. Talk with your doctor about it, she has really been helped by it.
