I'm sorry to hear that.

You could probably remain on reboxetine while taking Nardil. I'm sure you know that I have no great liking of reboxetine. You report that reboxetine is sufficient to treat your depression, so it is difficult to recommend its discontinuation. My main concern is that reboxetine might be contributing to your anxiety.Get well soon!
