> Parnate vs. Nardil: I think it really depends on the person taking it and the "flavor" of their depression. I wouldnt say Parnate has less side effects per se.
>Agreed. Nardil has the reputation for causing more weight gain, but there are other side effects (spontaneous hypertension and insomnia, for example) more common to Parnate. Your doctor will (presumably) make the decision based on your symptoms -- better to go with the drug more likely to help your particular depression than the drug that seems like it has fewer side effects.
Good luck!
