> Google says seroxat is paxil? Are you taking an Maoi with an SSRI if so contraindicated. Phillipa
Rose, Phillipa is right on the paroxetine (which is a SSRI) with Parnate. Was this combination prescribed by a Dr. SSRIs with MAOIs are a strict contraindication. Serotonin syndrome and death can result.
I've never had any problems with Benadryl and MAOIs. I've also used nortriptyline and bupropion with Nardil, no problem.
But serotonin syndrome is nothing to mess with.

PS Here is a post on serotonin syndrome from Elisabeth, an old poster on here who I consider the guru of treatment resistant depression.

Google some of her posts on MAOIs. A wealth of accurate information.
