I can't comment on kicking in the effects of anything-- i have no idea. And i'm not sure about the amount of risk for you in taking Ritalin with Parnate. I would say if you have had a spontaneous hypertensive crisis on Parnate (i.e. without eating or taking anything to cause it), then you definitely might be a little sensitive or might not be a good candidate for a stimulant. I'd still assume that a small amount of Ritalin would be okay, but you should ask your dr his/her opinion and go with that.

I'm no expert for sure, probably a little anal on the "rules" side after my experience, but I'm really asking. Because if my Parnate poops out, does small amount ritalin(dose?) kick in the effects again, or just address fatigue?
