In reply to any ADD med not dangerous when combined with MAOI?, posted by cybercafe on July 18, 2002, at 14:13:58
MAOIs by themselves can be effective for ADHD -- especially Parnate.
If you still have symptoms, though, you can try (cautiously and under close supervision) adding a stimulant to the MAOI. Provigil (modafinil) or Cylert is liable to be safer than the amphetamine-type stimulants. (Adrafinil may also be useful.)
There are also other meds sometimes used for ADHD, such as clonidine and guanfacine, which are safe to use if they help you.
