I've heard that a diuretic is used sometimes, but can be tricky because of increased hypotension.

I had never heard of any of your solutions to MAOI edema! Do you have any other solutions? Salt I knew about, but not caffeine. I'll have to cut back. I'm worried that Parnate will have this side effect for me. Nardil certainly did, even at lower doses.

Good luck --
