Parnate pulled me out of a vegetative depression that I had been in for almost two months. It worked within a few days. So I think 8 weeks is a pretty fair trial. I know some people on this list use pretty high doses, but my p-doc won't go above 40mg. I've been semi-OK on 30mg. NO more lying in bed all day, but I have had severe agitated depressions. I didn't find parnate speedy at all, though it did affect my sleep and still does.
As an aside, parnate gives me terrible dry mouth I teach for a living and have to sip water continually to talk. I went to the dentist yesterday and the hygenist told me that the lack of saliva means bacteria aren't washed out of the mouth and off the teeth and that my teeth were in fairly bad condition, so much so that they want me to do cleanings every 3 months. I am thinking of stopping the parnate because of this. I have felt pretty well for several months now.
