Having been on Nardil and now Parnate, it's been my experience that the MAOI's take longer to work than SSRI's...you've only been at 40 mg for a week...I've stayed at 30 for over a month and a half to see if I would respond further..I've just now seem my pdoc and am going to try 40 mg with very careful montitoring of my BP...I wasn't able to get to 30 mg previously due to severe hypotension, but now I've developed hypertension and Parnate has lowered it to the normal range, so here's hoping I can make it to 40 mg.
I'd give 40 mg more time to see if you'll respond...I didn't think I was going to respond at all this time but after a month at 30 I started to get benefit from it..
