In reply to Parnate above 60mg ? General update..., posted by zonked on September 24, 2009, at 15:19:12
> Hi all:

> So I am doing fairly well, but haven't remissed, on the following combo: Parnate 30mg 2x/day; Lamictal 200mg, Neurontin 300mg 3x/day, Xanax 0.5-1mg as needed, Temazepam 30mg for sleep.What are these others for? Are you using Temazepam to offset insomnia created by parnate?
> That distinct Parnate remission feeling is not quite there, not as I remember it on Parnate before, it's almost as if I am on the border of it but 60mg does not seem to be enough. I'm not crying all day or running around anxious, but not particularly interested in anything either.

> If there are studies or *anything* to back up higher than PDR maximum doses of Parnate, I would like to see them so if I encounter a .. "witch" psychiatrist again I can back up my request.

> zonkedhey- i would push the dose right up- and fast as possible too- http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2710808
Up to 100-120mg
All the best!
