Hi fellow Babbler's,
I take 100mg Parnate/day for chronic Social Phobia, Agoraphobia with Panick attacks.
Within a half hour of dosing time I begin to sweat REALLY bad. I can soak a bed or it seems like I am melting. I dont feel hot or bad, just sweating and slight body numb that can put me down for a hour nap.
Also my heart ramps up to about 100 - 110 bps. This all lasts for about 1.5 - 2 hours then Im back to normal.
It doesn't matter how I plit my dosage ie. 10mg taken ten times a day or 50mg taken twice a day.
Other then that I can tolerate Parnate very well. Im hoping to find an augment that works well for me soon because its just not doing a good enough job. Parnate is better then anything else Ive been on (side effect wise) which is all the common SSRI's and Nardil, sometimes with or without Lithium or Lamictal( I always give a new trial long enough to work ). Im at a baseline now of just Parnate. Benzo's work good enough to have a life when in combo with Parnate but my tolerence is so high to benzo's I dont want to take them daily, eg 4 mg clonazepam is the minimum to get me out of the house and interact ok socially, I bet after a week or 2 id be at 6mg/day. And I dont have a history of longterm benzo use or abuse, I just need to much of them for it to be a good combo.. but Im still considering it.Thanks if anyone has input about the sweating or heart beat issue.
