Hi, is there any difference in strenght between Parnate and Nardil, i mean if i take 60mg of Nardil would it correspond to 60mg of Parnate?

No, they are completely different drugs.

Yes, thank you, i know what they are, what i ment to ask was the usal effective dosage of these two drugs, anyways i already found the answer:
A rule of thumb is to start with one MAOI pill the first day and increase the dosage by one pill every 4 to 7 days until these levels are reached:
1 mg/kg/d for phenelzine;
40 mg/d for tranylcypromine and isocarboxazid;
45 mg/d for selegiline.

You got it right on the Nardil dosage.. for Parnate, I think 60-80 is actually the real effective dosage.. but it varies on the person, severity and type of problems you're attempting to treat. Going into the 100's up to 200mg is not too uncommon.
