>Parnate also has a short half life,so a lot of redosing is involved.Heres the skinny from my eyes.
--- Nardil effects will take time,wont be intialy robust,instead will kinda build its effect in a more solid manner,has an effect on gaba as well so more anxiety issues can be treated.Main side effects are weight gain,and sexual dysfunction.
--- Parnate has a rapid onset,initaly might even feel amphetamine like,usualy response of some kind can be appearent in days.--- Unlike nardil it doesent seem to buils,so its short life requires much more dosing and in my opinion a more possability of addiction.
-- Possably DECREASES gaba from what i read,so even when its sedating,it wont be the same as nardil.Misconception that parnate is some aphmentine like drug,this is usualy the case only on its initial onset,after a while it has a general mood uplift and even notroious for fatique.
No known weigh gain,might even help libidi,some cases causes acne.
My view,
Nardil----- for the person not Needing TO BE ON A DRUG ASAP and can wait.
Parnate,....people on the loose end,bed ridden,pparnate can then be a lide saver,even if its only to use to you decide to switch to nardil.
