Hi T
No Nardil in the PDR? How depressing. Most docs know little or nothing of Nardil - except that they probably have a strongly negative attitude towards it. That is, if they have heard of it at all.
My pdoc claims that he's never 'needed' to 'resort' to an MAOI. What about all his severely depressed, severely anxious patients who aren't doing well on other meds huh? The fact is, he knows NOTHING about MAOIs. He wouldn't be capable of prescribing one.
Nardil keeps getting 'passed about' in the UK. Pfizer haven't had anything to do with it for a long time. I wonder who'll be making it next year? Concord are making it at the moment. I expect that Nardil will remain available for several more years in the UK. Parnate will probably be discontinued fairly soon in the UK, IMO.
Regards
Ed
