In reply to MAOI for long-term GAD and Depression?, posted by Towervu2 on April 9, 2007, at 2:40:05
Tower, I would advise you to ask your pdoc this week for the Emsam patch, which is a MAOI that will help with fatigue and depression. At 6 mg (lowest dose), is has no food restrictions, but you have to be careful with OTC drugs. You should almost immediately feel an energy boost. Around week 6-7, it kicks in for depression. Or maybe sooner. Everybody is different. For the anxiety, you may want to augment with Klonopin (2-4mg day).
If that does not work, then we will talk about Nardil and Parnate. Nardil is supposed to be the best for all kinds of anxiety. I am on my second week and will be able to tell you as I go. Keep in touch, Michael
