These are all common cases.No new abstracts have shown up.In these some were under direct inpatient care,others watched closly,and even blood maoi levels were tested at times.This most likly wont be the case,the docs in these articles were famialir enough to know the maois well,now your lucky if a doc even knows what a maoi is.
Can it be done,well the milage will vary person to person.However i dont recmend it be considered safe,or common,rather make sure first you know your maoi well,i.e its onset and all around feel,this way if u do attempt it you can pick up on a crisis immediatly.
Also basic scieance shows due to mostly the maois fault,the chemicals will accumalte,so dont consider it long term,instead use the combo as a aid to get past a plateu,and try to stop the psycho stimulant when you hit remission,only to continue this on/off pattern when needed.
staying on a maoi and psycho stimulant is not recomended unless in very rare cases,as in these reports most times the doc invovled is one familiar and comfortable with maois,as well as the patient is usualy monitered very closly.
Maois simply dont hold this respect to pdocs today,and crappy or not the combination is not recomended by most because it is dangerous,and it does require both the patient and doc to know the maoi drugs feel very well.A new user should not be on this combo,it can be deadly,its not stated as a contradiction for light reasons as some of the maoi diet is.
Also more dangerous is some people have various tolerance,and can handle his combo fairly well,but again the risk is real,and THERE of a very fatal sitaution,be careful .
