going off nardil...need help!

Posted by rogdog on February 8, 2001, at 14:28:42

no luck with the 45 mgs of nardil/w xanax combo.. been on this for about 8 weeks now, I have tried all of the ssri's except for prozac, and have had pretty much lowsy results from all (worsening of tics)and anxiety.
any suggestions? thanks, Rogdog

I think you might get an excellent response from Lithium augmentation of Nardil. I got a good response from augmentation in only 48 hours!

I have found that 45 mg doesn't help much. I HAVE to take a full 60 mg to have a good response. My son started taking this in January and found the same thing.

In addition, isn't 60 mg the suggested therapuetic dose?

Take care,

A previous reply mentioned boosting your Nardil dose to 60 mg. I agree. I did not receive benefit from Nardil until I took 60 mg. daily.
