> I'd be rather worried about blood pressure on this combination, the alpha2 receptor is the feedback mechanism. I have looked and have not seen any documented combinations of MOAI & alpha2 antagonist being used, because i personally benefitted from yohimbe and wanted to try it with an MAOI, but decided it was too risky. Secondary TCAs don't have as bad as side effects as ones like amitriptilyine, if you have taken that before.

You'd be worried about serotonin syndrome? Mirtazpaine is an adrenergic alpha-antagonist so it would theoretically block or lower BP like phentolamine which is used for hypertensive crisis for MAOI's.
