MAOI Trial

Posted by Oliver71 on June 19, 2011, at 22:30:47

Hi,

I'm new and wanted to share my experience with an MAOI trial that I'll be starting next month. I've recently tapered off Prozac, which I've taken for the past few years with doses ranging from 40-100mg/day. I've also stopped Concerta, having taken 54mg for about the past 6 months. I'm currently tapering nortriptyline from 75mg at a rate of 25mg per week. Still taking 900mg lithium.

I guess I'd say I have treatment-resistant depression that ranges from mild to moderate, though that's pretty subjective. I have some symptoms of "atypical" depression, thus the MAOI trial, since other medications haven't helped enough. Based on the research I've done so far, Parnate sounds preferable to Nardil - fewer side effects.

Will keep you all posted on my experience.

Oliver
