> New pharmacist says protein powder is no problem. I still will stay clear, but man does anybody still study MAOI's anymore? Have these been almost entirely abandoned? I wouldn't be surprised if they eventually discontinue the whole line. I guess with the heavy marketing and safety profile of SSRI's there's no incentive for docs to keep up on these meds. That's unfortunate because they appear to be underprescribed, misunderstood, and help quite a few people. Thanks again for the reply Jost. If you do hear anything from your doc please keep me posted. Best regards. H. Upmann

Hi,
As a long time user of MAOIs, I believe that you have to go to the next level in responsibility when taking these medications. I do all of my own research before taking anything with Nardil. I once had a pharmacist from a major chain give me completely bogus information about a cough syrup with Nardil. A trip to the ER and $1000 CT scan convinced me not to trust anyone but myself. MDs have given me totally inaccurate information about the meds. I will use the information on babble to see what others have used safely and then verify that through PUBMED and other sources. Its your life and when taking MAOIs you want to be very careful with it.
Take care,
Jedi
PS A pharmacist that tells you it is ok to take 200mg of tyramine in one dose while on Nardil, needs to go back to school.
