> Another class of drugs that also increases dopamine as well as serotonin and norepinephrine is called MAO (monoamine oxidase) inhibitors. Examples are Parnate and Nardil.
Be very careful with MAOI drugs. There are very strict dietary restrictions that MUST be followed when using them. For example, easting any kind of fermented soy or certain cheeses while taking Nardil will send your blood pressure so high that you are likely to stroke out. No joking.
