Nardil update - reassurance anyone?

Posted by mattdds on January 16, 2004, at 0:05:49

Well folks it's been a week and a half on Nardil. I'm going back and forth between 45 and 60 mg per day.

A few comments.

1. Man, this drug seems strongly serotonergic, almost SSRI-ish. I find myself with that inner tense feeling, numbness below the waistline, and blase feeling I got on the SSRI's. I hope this is just a startup effect.

2. I am verrrry sedated. I can sleep on a dime now, seriously! This is not necessarily bad, I don't even really need Ambien anymore. Crazy!

3. I feel a bit of ataxia, clumsiness, and forgetful. I guess all of these fall under the broad category of cognitive dysfunction that I hear is common during startup.

Do the dumb-dumb effects (i.e. cognitive dysfunction) go away? I hear this is mainly a startup effect. What about the sedation? I won't hold out too much hope for the sexual probs.

I'm definintely giving this baby more time. I think I need a bit of reassurance though! lol.

Thanks for any comments, etc.

Matt
