Hi,
Thanks, I'm not too worried.
Another thing I've read regarding Nardil, is that it's less likely to create food-induced hypertensive crises than Parnate (i.e. it takes more mg of tyramine to induce a response when on Nardil than on Parnate, in one study I read). Do you know anything about this?
I thought I was through with AD's before Parnate. SSRI's and TCA's of all flavors were HELL. But my response to Parnate was so good that I definitely will discuss Nardil with my doc on Tuesday (or see what he says about Parnate and the BP thingy).
I really will miss Parnate's lack of sexual side effects. Actually, it was a bit *prosexual*, at least for me.
Benzos have been so good for me. Perhaps Nardil will be good for me too with the whole GABA transaminase inhibition, as well as the MAO inhibition.
Is Nardil another Paxil (am I going to have a heart attack before I finally have an orgasm)? Or Are the sexual SE's not quite so bad? I've heard Nardil is not as bad as the SSRI's.
Thanks for your response!
Matt
