I am back on Parnate after being on it a short while (had to go off it for surgery)..it's great for focus and concentration..and I feel I have to have a nap in the afternoon..no hypotension so far..I also take 25 mg of seroquel, 7.5 zopiclone and .5 clonazapam at nite for sleep..I was only taking 20 mg before surgery and am hoping to be able to ramp up to 30 mg. soon. I'm hoping it will help with getting back some motivation as I'm still pretty much a sloth at times..
I really want to give it a fair trial cause all SSRI's poop out on me after a year or I can't tolerate the side effects of some..I gained 80 pounds from the carb cravings of some of them..
I've lost 20 pounds since starting parnate (didn't gain any while off it for surgery)..it's like it turns of your appetite switch..
I hope it works well for you..keep us posted on how you're doing..we can compare notes!!
