In reply to Offsetting side effects of Nardil?, posted by Melanie on October 4, 1999, at 9:28:30
I used a relatively low dose of Wellbutrin with Nardil
with no problems. Experienced pdocs are not uncomfortable prescribing the two
together as long as the patient had no prior problems with serotonin/norep syndrome.
It did seem to help with the sexual dysfunction and increased my energy, but did nothing
for weight gain. I definitely would not combine selegiline at any dose with Nardil -- way
too risky. Nardil can also be combined with Ritalin, Adderall, and reboxetine, but I don't know if
they would affect sexual stuff or weight.anita

I realize that most experienced psychopharmacologists with cautiously combine other drugs with MAOI's. Less experienced psychdocs and, in particular, family physicians, tend to avoid MAOI's altogether.
