Hi Maxime,

I was thinking of you the other day and contemplating about ways to prevent poopout from your Parnate. By any chance were you taking extra vitamin B6? With people taking MAOIs I've heard that it can become depleted very easily. If you had become deficient in it, it may have robbed your body of an important enzyme needed to allow Parnate to work properly. It may have taken awhile for your body to deplete it as well, which may explain why it lasted as long as it did. Just a thought...

As well, when you tried lithium augmentation before... did you drink many fluids and keep your sodium intake up? Lack of hydration, especially sodium can drastically effect the toxicity of lithium which is something you were saying you were having a problem with before. Lithium needs to be bound to sodium in order to be expelled from the body. The extra sodium may also help with mid-day hypotension when on Parnate. And as you may possibly know lithium is supposed to be one of the best augmenters to prevent AD poopout.

Hopefully one of those suggestions will be of help, or at least steer you in a new direction to allow for a smoother ride.

Your fellow Parnate buddy, :)

Brian
