" But man, if there really is that much difference in efficacy btwn old and new Nardil, i can't imagine how effective the old version would be. 60mg/day of the new version has still been virtually miraculous for me. Anyway, i'm thankful that, thus far, i don't have to worry about this crap. Good luck people."
You're very fortunate indeed. When I take 60Mg of this new formulation it completely shuts down my ability to urinate such that I have to be catheterized -- something I had to do to myself simply to void. Apparently you take no other psychotropic drugs, but I must take Amitriptyline which has anti-cholinergic properties. The fact that Pfizer had to make this change is very likely going to cost me my life, which I tend to take rather personally.
I've not yet decided upon a sensible course of action other than to try the only two other MAOIs, but this old phenelzine was fantastic and did not need to be changed. I suspect the FDA forced it however. I was rather fond of living
you see, and I had many other matters to attend to in life, but that's soon to be over thanks to Pfizer's FDA driven change in Nardil.
