> Typically washout period is 5xhalf life of existing drug. NE re-uptakes and SE antagonist some doctor will prescribe concurrently with MAOIs , so that could be a gray area. Drugs that are SRI or SE/DA releasers, I don't think you should deviate.

100% agree. My PDoc made me wait 2 weeks, lost his nerve, made me wait another 5 days and then finally prescribed Parnate. I wanted to strangle him!

I was still taking Abilify and oxycodone (for chronic pain) during the 2 week period but they are known to be safe with Parnate.

I'm 2 weeks into Parnate, on 50mg and will also help out with questions where I can and am able.


I love the smell of Abilify in the morning. The smell, you know that chemical smell. Smells like victory. Some day this war's gonna end...
