I can't remember exactly, but I was on Nardil for 4-6 months or maybe longer. I switched to Parnate and stayed on it for 4 years, but that was 5 years ago. I re-tried the Parnate recently and on the first try had terrible tacychardia. Re-tried it again, more slowly, and had a very weird and creepy sedative effect.

I need to be back on an AD and may try Moclobemide if no one can offer a solution to the carb craving on the Nardil. The craving did not taper off for me. I can't remember how much I gained, but I am a petite woman and have always prided myself on my appearance. At my height even 10 lbs is significant.

I also took another drug while on the Nardil for anorgamsmia. I lost all the weight plus some on the Parnate, additionaly had increased sex drive and no sexual dsyfunction and had all the benefit that Nardil had offered. The biggest side effect on Parnate was sleep disturbance but I don't remember it interfering that much as time went on.

Good luck to you and hope you find the Nardil as helpful as I did.
