> Tygereyes--how can you say you didn't respond to 6mg when you haven't been on it for four weeks? Perhaps I've lost track of time, but I thought its only been a couple of weeks. And didn't you decide to stop it after the first couple of days? Or did you change your mind and keep it on? Perhaps I'm just confused, as you've been talking about Parnate, so I assumed you'd stopped the patch.
>I was originally prescribed 9 mg/24 hr. The pharmacy screwed up and I was suicidal and couldn't wait any longer so I just used the 6 mg/24 hr ones they had given me by mistake.
I was on it, then went off, then back on. My doctor wrote me a script for 9 mg since I have needed such high doses of ADs before and since I am suicidal right now. He said we couldn't wait any longer. He is afraid of what might happen if I don't exhibit an AD response soon. (Hence why I want to go back on Parnate ... immediate amphetamine-like effect)
