Hello,
Good forum by the way very informative, I was wondering if anyone could answer a few questions which I cannot seem to find the answers to about Nardil.
I have tried tranylcypromine for a few weeks and thought it was great although almost slightly too dopamergenic(?) but I stopped due to headaches and fear of dietary restrictions etc. I am experimenting with some of the newer meds but they just dont seem to work as well as maoi and my psychiatrist keeps reccomending to me that I try nardil as it is good for anxiety and depression and has less chance of hypertensive crisis, So my questions are....
1) How much lower is the risk of hypertensive reactions with nardil over parnate, is it quite a lot more forgiving if you were to eat something by mistake?
2) If i was to take a quite low dose eg. 30mg per day how bad are the side effects of weight gain and anorgasmia likely to be? Are they dose dependant and also do they go away with time?
3) How do you think Nardil would campare to Escitalopram + Bupropion Combo ( neither work that well alone for me bupropion is too anxiety inducing and escitalopram is too numbing but I thought may work well in combo?)
Thanks for your help any responses appreciated from peope with previous experience :).
