> In reguards to MAOIs. Has anyone tried selegiline ? I understand that it is void of the "cheese effect" at doses of 10-15mg. Also they are in the works of creating a transdermal patch that bipasses the intestine, avoiding intestinal amines.. does anyone else know anything ?

>Most reports I have read say that it's doesn't do much for depression at Parkinsons doses less than 20mg, but above that it becomes non-selective & antidepressant. I expect it would be at least as stimulating as Parnate as it is the MAOI that metabolizes to amphetamine & methamphetamine. If you think Selegiline is worth a try don't wait forever for the patch, try it now, the diet is not that strict, you just need to educate yourself. One of the best places to see what you can & can't eat is right here, run a few Google searches.
