Hi Cee,
I think it's nice that you seem to be noticing a difference in the way Nardil affects you with everything that you've done to it. But are you sure that adding extra isopropyl alcohol into the mix really increased the "Nardil effect?" Isopropyl alcohol is listed as an ingredient in the "new" Nardil and not the old version. It's my understanding that isopropyl alcohol is used as a solvent both for tablet film coating and for tablet granulation and that with both procedures, the alcohol used ends up being removed by evaporation (Beasley, 2003). It's also stated in the Handbook of Pharmaceutical Excipients (Beasley, 2003) that isopropyl alcohol is not recommended for oral use due to its toxicity.
So, bottom line: I wouldn't mess with the isopropyl alcohol. I don't see the harm that using the enteric capsules or that adding white wheat flower, magnesium powder, or corn starch would cause, but consuming isopropyl alcohol isn't recommended.
