> Recently, I decreased my Nardil from 75mg->60mg, I was on 60 mg for about 2 months and then realized I was eating everything in sight and decided to decrease to 30 mg. After realizing I was eating everything sugar I decided with my Pdoc to give it another try but this time not to eat junk food. So I've increased from 30 mg -> 60 mg, in a months time (yes i know long time, but my pdoc is over cautious which is a good thing), and i've been on 60 mg for about 10 days, and this time i'm not feeling enough benefit from it..kind of worrys me. How long do you think I should wait until I ramp it up to 75 mg, I think my body has adapted to this medicine somehow, I dont have any more side effects, not even insomnia. I do take Ambien at night, but no other side effects. Just curious, do you think I should give it another couple of weeks on 60 mg before I decide to move up to 75mg? Anyone whose taken Nardil before i'd like to hear what you have to say. Thanks
angels78,
When I took Nardil, it took approximately two weeks following each dose increase for me to feel its antidepressant effects (and also to become less sleepy). So, based on my experience, I would definitely give the Nardil at least another two weeks before increasing the dose to 75 mg. I don't think that 10 days is enough time for you to be able to determine how you're going to react to 60 mg of Nardil this time around.
