> Fascinating that Parnate made sweetenlow feel fatigued, but Nardil did not!
This may actually be pretty common. I've seen a lot of reports about excessive daytime drowsiness and fatigue with Parnate and very few (actually, none that I can remember) from people taking Nardil. I've also taken the two myself and have found Parnate much worse than Nardil in that regard.
In my case, it only seemed to affect me after I had taken a dose; unfortunately, more than 10mg of Parnate at a time gave me spontaneous elevations of blood pressure so I had to take it throughout the day in divided doses.
It also caused insomnia which didn't exactly help the daytime sedation.
Nardil had no effect either way for me. The only side-effect from Nardil I had was weight gain (which, compared to other drugs that cause weight gain, was not bad at all). Still.. I'm probably so vain that I would take Parnate over Nardil if I had to do it again.
