Yikes, that's not good to hear. On the other hand, I've now heard the full spectrum of how people respond to Nardil so I will just have to wait and see how it affects me. My pdoc started me on an escalating dose: 15mg for 3 days, 30mg for 3 days, 45mg for a week, then 60mg for a week. The end goal depending on how I respond is 1mg/kg, per published literature. That would mean a 90mg dose. My insomnia is already bad, and my pdoc is tapering me off benzos completely, so I don't know what to expect. I have very high hopes that Nardil will help me. My only previous MAOI experience with Moclobemide was a huge but very short lived success.
BTW, any ideas on how to prevent the dreaded Nardil poop-out before it happens? Is their a medical term for "poop-out" for lit searches?
Thanks,
