> Thanks I was wondering if the two are interchangable? I though others had said they didn't work the same way. Have you found them to be similar? I may have to pay for the Emsam if my insuror doesn't cover it, but I'm allfor the cheapest way to go as it works. Im a firm believer in generics although my pdoc feels otherwise. No sense supporting drug companies that make billions off us every year and most of the drugs don't work and I end up with hundreds (try to avoid this) of pills that never get used.

You would have to follow the MAOI diet if you take the 5 mg. tablet more than twice a day (as with 9 and 12 mg. Emsam) but Emsam is Selegiline, like the tablets.
I'm on 10 mg., 2 tabs, morning and night.
If you are on 6 mg. and want to stay on Emsam, there's always 9 and 12.Vicki
