In reply to Parnate ) can't stay awake, posted by mav27 on January 11, 2008, at 9:42:08
> I've just started parnate after having too many problems with nardil even though the stuff was the first AD to actually work :(
> Anyway the problem i'm having is on the parnate i just can't stay awake... i'm so drowsy all the time it isn't funny and as soon as i close my eyes for a second i'm out like a light. it's meant to cause insomnia, not this! I've been on parnate before, about 6 years ago and had to stop it because of the insomnia so this is just weird.

> It's only been 7 days so far, and i'm only on 10mg a day, i tried 20 but had the same problem but with really bad orthostatic hypotension which is what lead to me ceasing nardil. Anyone had drowsiness problems with parnate, i had read about it making you sleepy in the arfternoon or something but not 24/7Hah I had the exact same reaction to Parnate and Im a pretty bad insomniac. It pretty much gave me, that disease where you can't controll when u fall asleep. And I tried a really high dose.
Its crazy to because Parnate is probably the most dopaminergic anti'D on the market, it musn't haany NA inhibition, or maybe theres a form of DA that makes you tired, dunno.Freq
