Correct. One must be careful while on Nardil. No question. But personally I have never ever had any problems except one hypertensive crises- had to go to hospital. But I would have 50 for the benefit this master med provides!
> My questions are:
> 1.) Does anyone know of any research being done in the area of MAOI's? E.g., Taking higher doses than the 6 pill max recomended dose.No. All research is spent (wasted!) on SSRI cash cows...too bad MAOIs kill them! Folks, that's just my opinion! However, PLENTY of folk go over the recommended dose- I heard of one fellow taking 240mg nardil with no probs at all.
> 2.) Does anyone know of a solution to the "burnout" aspect of the efficacy? E.g. other meds that work on the same neuro-transmitters.Lower the MAOI dose for a week and go back up. This aspect is nearly always reversible (if it happens which is rare) with MAOIs, unlike SSRIs.
> 3.) Has anyone experienced a re-ignition of efficacy w/Nardil?Always. It never lets me down.
