In reply to Decision about switching from Parnate to Nardil?, posted by Shaner on July 5, 2007, at 12:57:06
Can't exactly answer your question about whether people do better on Nardil after parnate... but I am in same boat as you... about one month on Parnate with very limited response... lots of side efx no relief of depressive symptoms. It certainly is not energizing as I too had hoped. I'm going to stick with it awhile longer because someone helpful here advised they got a great effect w/ parnate after one full month. I stayed away from nardil because I'd read about so many people who say Nardil is no longer effective since they changed the formula in 2003 plus weight gain. That being said if nothing improves on Parnate -- after fair trials on every reasonable dose -- I AM going to try switching to Nardil... why not... some people love it... esp. for SA which isn't my problem, but... going to give both MAIOs a fair trial before giving up on them. They're pretty much my last shot, and it can't hurt. That's my 2 cents. Do post and again let me know if you switch how it goes.
