In reply to which OTC drugs are o.k with Parnate/MAOI's?, posted by nickguy on January 4, 2008, at 17:14:01
Hi Nick
You are like me in that I was able to eat almost anything with Parnate. I only had reactions to home made wine (store bought was okay).
I was travelling for work and had an awful cold. I bought Tylenol Cough and Cold tablets and that is when insanity set in. I started babbling sounds, words and making noises with my mouth.It was really scary.
There is a stimulant in cough/cold meds. The combination with the Parnate was awful. I wouldn't risk taking anything with a decongestant. Nose sprays are okay, but the meds are not (it will say on the packaging that it is not to be taken with MAOIs). I wouldn't try anything without asking a pharmacist.
