After 2 hours i was in bed sleeping! I was pretty much alerted before i took the (half) pill and i had slept well last night. I am almost certain that the drowsiness was caused by it.

Now I remember taking 5 and then 10mg oral l-deprenyl, for quite a while (months), not even realizing I should be taking any dietary/medication cautions.

My experience was absolutely nothing. It was like I was taking a sugar pill. I was taking this without a prescription (I know, bad bad me), but it was brand name Eldepryl from a reputable source. No anxiety, stimulation, improvement of depression. Weird. And then I have a massive response to Nardil. Shows you the MAOIs are all quite different.
