This seems inevitable if it's only given twice a day as per the manufacturer's intructions. I think this might be counterproductive. Do you agree that more frequent administration might allow it to be effective?

Perhaps, generally. However, the hideousness of my reaction to moclobemide was an exacerbation of depression rather than a benign lack of effect. I think I understand your idea regarding an oscillation of MAO inhibition occurring around dosing. I don't know if my experience can be attributed to that. It's a good idea, though.
