I don't know of any class of AD out there that isn't a bit hard on the liver. Ok, maybe there are some but if it isn't the liver then its some other organ. Hell, if you stay on aspirin (regular dose, not the baby kind) too long your stomach will really start to complain. Truth is: there is no such thing as a completely safe drug.
The MAOI's are the oldest class of drugs and therefore we know more about them than any other class. For all we know in 20 years time everyone who took....oh let's say Effexor (just picking one at random!) will have 2 headed babies or something!
