> I wouldn't have thought the washout period would be needed just to start using ventolin. The washout period is just to allow the maoi to regenerate so that if you take another AD you don't get the seratonin syndrome. I can't see ventolin for a respirotory infection increasing seratonin. You would just have to allow a day for the nardil to get out of your body.

Hypersertonemia from another AD is not the only risk and not the only reason for the washout. If your going to be strict about the rules (which is safe IMO), you need a 14 day washout to go to Ventolin. It is a sympathomimetic, and you risk a hypertensive crisis. It's a small risk, but I know I'm sure scared about having one. Not pleasant according to those who have experienced them.
