> Has anyone had success with adding any other med(s) to Parnate (tranylcypromine)? It seems that lithium and T3 augmentation are the only "standard" options available. Is there any increased risk when adding amphetamine to Parnate as opposed to Nardil? Thanks.

MAOIs can be used with many drugs that are normally considered contraindicated. Among those are psychostimulants such as dexedrine, Ritalin and Provigil. The antidepressant Wellbutrin has also been combined with MAOIs. See:
Pierre JM, Gitlin MJ.
Bupropion-tranylcypromine combination for treatment-refractory depression.
J Clin Psychiatry. 2000 Jun;61(6):450-1.
