Therapeutic dose, selegiline for depression?

Posted by mogger on March 9, 2005, at 19:56:10

HI,
not sure if my last post got up and running so I would like to ask whether 20mg of Selegiline is a good dose for depression as my sister's doc put her on that dose. Thanks for your thoughts,
mogger

I've generally seen people taking 5-10 mg. along with DLPA or larger doses of selegiline if taken on its own. 20 mg. is probably a good dosage to start at. If she needs more, then the dose can be increased. Just make sure that she follows the MAOI diet restrictions which are necessary once you go over 10 mg. of selegiline.
