I have taken the Pfizer brand name Nardil for the past several years. A month go I switched to the Gavis/Lupin version because the brand name is on back order. I have noticed an increase in side effects, despite being on the same dose. I put on five pounds of abdominal fat (yuck) despite the exercise and reduced added sugar in my diet. I have a lower sex drive, and feel more drowsy. This suggests to me that the Gavis phenelzine might be more effective, or perhaps more efficiently absorbed, than the Pfizer version. I am reducing the dose slowly to 45 mg to see if that helps reduce the side effects.
