I stopped Emsam

Posted by former poster on January 22, 2012, at 2:30:55

The positive effects:
Improved long term memory. Improved motivation. I was amazed to find that doses over 12mg actually improved libido and sexual fuction. (A big leap for MAOI's)

For the bad effects:
Complete unrelenting insomnia, malaise, fatigue (I'm guessing from lack of sleep), Stammering, word retrieval problems. Emsam seems effective for suicidal depression, which I had when I increased to the 12mg-13.5mg. dose. I actually was prescribed 18mg (2 of the 9mg patches daily) but I felt ill and took only 1/2 of the 9mg patch plus another 9mg. patch.
