AFAIK 30mg is a relatively low dose of Parnate. I'm sorry I am late in responding :(
So long as you don't have any blood pressure spikes or additional side effects it'd probably make sense to try going a little higher w/ the parnate dose.
Marplan works pretty well for me but it's impossible to get at the moment. I couldn't get it at all last year (manufacturer had problems and it was just not avaialble at all). Finally 2 months ago the US company that owns the rights got permission to import it from the Denmark which is the only other place in the work it's being manufacturered at the moment. I'm paying a lot to go back on it :(
It's mild though - I think I'm abnormal w/ my depression and it helps aspects that make it a good fit for me. They say it's good for depersonalization so maybe I have some of that - I have better sense of self on it but I wouldn't say I "feel good" on it which is why I tend not to recommend it.
I actually see my doc in 2 days and I'm thinking if there's anything I could add to help a bit. My moods have been a bit down. it could be a bit of w/d after a year of Nardil and then switching over the Marplan but.....
What did you and your doctor decide to do?
