> Yeah, when I switched from Emsam to Parnate, PDoc made me wait 2-4 weeks? can't remember. But I've been seeing a lot of people on board do it all the time (switch from one to another). So "that guy" will be happy, he has a back-up plan, and nobody wants to come off an MAOI to wait 4 weeks to start next. Just so we're clear tho, switching to an A/D other than another MAOI could be dangerous with out waiting, correct?

yup, no antidepressant (and not even getting to at least try one) for a few weeks sucks. Generally, you do need to wait, although basically the same rules for what you can combine with MAOIs apply. NRIs are less of a problem, but an sri you really do need to wait 2 weeks (4 weeks seems excessive, except maybe a pensioner with really slow body or something.) now i've seen some say 'wait two weeks to start an MAOI,' and that just depends on the halflife of what you were on before, but for most sris maybe 5-7 days is enough.-d/r
