> The UK manufacturer doesn't specify a maximum dose as such. They make the rather vague statement.... 'doses above 30mg should be given under close supervision only'. Hopefully, if your doctor has a brain, s/he will titrate the dose based on how you respond :-) Does your doc have a brain? Mine doesn't :-O

That ist absolutely right! I for myself went as high as 200 mg/die, while a rather limited response took place at 160 mg/die (and not before I took that much). I talked to a represantative of the drug company (in Germany) and she told me that even 1200 mg/die (yes, 1.2 g) were in one case administered before betterment was achieved. According to my psychiatrist, high doses of Parnate (= Jatrosom in Germany) even reduce the risk of spikes in blood pressure; can anyone comment on that?
