In reply to 7 Weeks On Parnate - Help, posted by eric wagner on August 16, 2008, at 7:53:37
Eric:
Ive only been on Nardil, but Ive heard all MAOIs have side effects when going through the beginning phases. Even more importantly (and good for you), many on here will tell you that the side effects are indication that Parnate is working in you, although not how you want ... yet.
It took Nardil 10-11 weeks for it really to kick in from me. I know thats probably what you did not want to hear. But I would consider giving it another month so you can say you gave it a FULL trial.
Also, there are many ppl (SLS being one of them) who combine MAOIs with other drugs (Nortrip) to come up with successful combinations. So you've got plenty of options left.
Hang in there, please, and keep posting.
