Have you found there is a difference between the new versus old formulations of nardil that many have noticed?

Not at all. However, I tend to believe the people who post of their experiences with the new formulation. I bet that if you were to titrate the new Nardil through clinical observation, you will eventually respond in a fashion equal to that of the old formulation. The only thing is, you will have arrived at a higher dosage. I would guess that the new delivery system (excipients) is less efficient in the new version versus the old one.
I am taking 90mg of new Nardil. I used to respond to 75mg of old Nardil.

>Thanks ...so people have to put up with more sides for the same effect. The only difference I can come up with is the old formula was enteric coated. I saw one old poster found a solution in putting the contents of nardil into an enteric coated capsule.

One could also try sublingual. Not sure what the pills are like might have to crush them to get them to dissolve. Keep in mind much lower dose (for selegiline it is about 6-8x lower), although would depend on the pill. Could be worth trying if you having trouble affording the high dose.
