In reply to 2 weeks on Parnate, and feeling pretty Groovy!, posted by TylerJ on February 23, 2006, at 12:49:24
long time lurker first time poster.
several rounds with parnate myself and looking at it once again to turn several aspects of my life around.
having browsed the posts recently, and this is purely subjective, sure seems that parnate has a significant, strong, and positive following. nice is this is representational of a trend and to see a see a return to the ole MAOIs.
now that the hype is gone all thats left is the efficacy.
they are metabolically complex and not all that well understood. as aside to their non selective MAO inhibition, the increase of this over time, the variation of receptor agonism due to dosage, and that they also happen to work on cytokine modulation somehow.
meaning that i could never work out the proper dosage/admin.
i typically went into a 24 hour awake/12 hours sleep cycle.
made sleep look a bit like death! 8)however i ate EVERYTHING at high doses: like 120mg, monitored BP and never had even a spike over 130/80. Orthostatic hypotension was pretty disturbing though, passing out in front of friends is pretty embarrasing.
It sure makes life feel important.
