In reply to What was or is your PARNATE experience?, posted by JadeKelly on January 2, 2009, at 18:52:13
Oh I have no problem with pdoc bashing. I have gone through several and the first I had convinced my family I was making it up because this baffoon couldn't believe that Accutane could possibly cause depression. A simple google search would reveal it has even killed a Congressman's son!
Parnate.... is one of the best medications I have tried for severe treatment resistant depression. The problem is severe insomnia and the reluctance of my current pdoc (ironically the best I have found) to prescribe me a proper sleep aid along with it.
I am at a loss for words almost at the world of so called psychiatry. When I know more about specific medications than my own pdoc there is a serious problem with how this so called pdocs are educated.
Who in their right mind would prescribe Parnate without a sleep aid??

> Want to get this in following previous thread, that I hope serves to educate those using Parnate and those thinking about or planning to use it. I realized how little info I was given in a 10-15 minute appt from PDoc, and how many questions that later arose. NOT PDoc bashing, just stating the obvious. If we are to get answers FOR ANY PARNATE QUESTION I hope some find it here or in the above post. MAOI users have to educate themselves. THAT would be good PDoc advice! Please, if you have an isolated horror story lets not scare people off. These drugs, I believe when used properly DO save lives.
