Yes, I have had times when it seemed the Nardil stopped working.
For me it happened fairly regularly about every 9 years. Each time
I went off the Nardil, tried the newest wonder drug, and after a couple
months went back on the Nardil. Each time, except right now, the Nardil
kicked in like it did when I first started it. The most recent poop out
started about 4-5 years ago. I went through the same process, but this time
the Nardil didn't kick in lick all the previous times. I am currently taking
120 mg every day (8 tablets). Nardil is the only antidepressent that has ever
worked for me (I have tried everything on the market, including electroshock).
Dosage: my current daily dosages are 120 mg Nardil (8 tablets), 60 mg Metadate ER (Ritalin),
200 mg Provigil, 12.5 ug Cytomel (T3), and 200 mg Trazodone. Keep in mind that for
the first 26 of those 30 years I was feeling great on 60 mg Nardil and 20 mg Ritalin.
Side Effects: Anorgasmia and the slow down you mentioned have been chronic side effects.
When starting the Nardil, or just changing
the dosage, there were transient side including dry mouth, blurred vision or trouble focusing,
constipation, and postural hypotension. On the plus side, the Nardil controls my hypertension
and cholesterol, which eliminates two other medicines I have to take when off the Nardil.
The diet restrictions are a very small price to pay for getting my life back.
Hope this helps.
