Hi,
Scott is taking Nardil with the adrenergic TCA, nortriptyline. YOu might babble mail him if you have questions. I'd would research carefully which norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor you want to take. I've read that strattera can make depression worse. Reboxetine, might be a better, bet, but I would research that drug as well. I don't know a whole lot about it.> Hi all, I am a newbie to this forum and have a burning question.

This is because these two drugs are potent noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors which may provide a strong protective effect against tyramine induced hypertensive crsis. Well at least this research found this to be the case:
