The usual dose of selegiline is 5 to 10 mg a day usually taken with breakfast. (Though I've seen some people mention that they take 2.5 mg). Anything more than 10 mg and you run the risk of selegiline becomine a non-selective MAOI complete with all the dietary restrictions. The DLPA dosage is usually 500 to 1000 mg taken first thing in the morning.
I know that phenylalanine is a tryrosine precursor but I haven't seen anything which directly addresses taking tyrosine with selegiline.
