> Nardil is a great medication but it was a failed med trial for me. I developed bad urinary issues and a lovely side effect of spontaneously vomiting in my sleep. The danger of that side effect was the reason I went off it. On the other hand Parnate only had two side effects, hypotension and anorexia. What are your views on Parnate?
The vomiting is strange.....Although people do experience this on Remeron....
Were you taking any other medicines at the time of your Nardil trial?
Parnate can be a real Godsend too.....it has been shown, like Nardil, to be extremely effective.
Differences about Parnate, in contrast to Nardil, , are its s/effect profile...obviously it has a different pharmacology-
In my opinion Parnate has unequivocal psycho-stimulant properties that can lead to a great response (and some insomnia). other s/effects are lack of appetite (which you know) and minor psychomotor problems. There's is a full list, but these are what I have noticed most....For some it's NE profile, I feel, can cause a paradoxical depression.
I think this is mainly the exception, not the rule but.
I have seen phenomenal responses to Parnate- not as manu as Nardil, but still a lot.
I definately would give it a go.....how long was your last trial?
And in one study I have, it was the leading medicine that psychiatrists would treat themselves with!
Please feel free to ask any more, and I hope all is well:)
