My main side effects after 12 years of on again, off again(mostly on) Nardil are weight gain, insomnia, and delayed or absent orgasm. The weight gain can usually be beat with control of carbohydrates and lots of exercise. The insomnia almost always has to be treated with something. There are treatments for delayed orgasm. At high doses orgasm can be absent.

Most of the other side effects, at least in my experience, go away with time. The orthostatic hypotension was never a problem for me. In fact Nardil acts to control my borderline high hypertension by lowering my normal BP by about 20 points. This has kept me off the beta blockers. The afternoon tiredness went away after a few months.

Nardil side effects are really dosage related for me. At 60mg I have very few, at 90mg I have substantially more.

Good Luck,
Jedi
