This is pretty much what I was asking in my "Nardil dosage times irrelevant?" 09/19 post, which no-one has answered :(
My understanding (straight from Wikipedia) is that it shouldn't matter at all, since MAO takes 2 weeks to regenerate. The only difference you should experience would be in the side-effects experienced.
I am dying to know if this is right for 2 reasons:
1/ the last time I switched my dosage times, I had a terrifying crash back into deep depression. It could have been a complete co-incidence, but I'm not risking that again without more information.
2/ I want to change my dosage times because I keep on falling asleep (as in, actually asleep) at work and can barely concentrate I'm so somnolent.Info greatly appreciated,
Pete
