I'm not on Marplan now, but I took it in the early 90's and it was very beneficial to me for a few years. It worked as well or better than my current med, Nardil.
The second time I tried it, it did not work. Back inthe 90's, the manufacturor (Roche) stopped making it since it was not a money maker for them, sending those of us on it, into a tailspin for many years, trying to find another med that would give me my life back. That never happened.
Only in the last few years did another company put it back on the market and I think they messed with the formula (of course) and it didn't help me at all. IT could have been my chemistry had changed too, but it's hard to know.
But it's certainly worth trying. I had no real side effects that I can remember, but we forget the bad stuff, if the end result is successful.
