Mao doesn't get replaced so quickly, and right now, you could be much more susceptible to another reaction, because your reserves have been used.

> There is some amphetemine in parnate which often causes a spike in bp after you take the med. I remember an old poster who could only take 10 mg per dose without a spike and therefore took multiple doses of 10 mg.Since you appear to be sensitive to Parnate I would limit my intake of caffein.
