Thank you Ron Hill for the response. What I found most interesting from the link is, it says once you reach the max. benefit from Nardil, to decrease over several weeks, even down to 1 15mg pill a day? Is this because the nardil is in your system already and there is no need for multiple pills?
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
Initial dose: The usual starting dose of NARDIL is one tablet (15 mg) three times a day.
Early phase treatment: Dosage should be increased to at least 60 mg per day at a fairly
rapid pace consistent with patient tolerance. It may be necessary to increase dosage up to
90 mg per day to obtain sufficient MAO inhibition. Many patients do not show a clinical
response until treatment at 60 mg has been continued for at least 4 weeks.
Maintenance dose: After maximum benefit from NARDIL is achieved, dosage should be
reduced slowly over several weeks. Maintenance dose may be as low as one tablet, 15
mg, a day or every other day, and should be continued for as long as is required.
