I've been on 75 MG of Nardil since March 15th. It has worked tremendously well on my depression (It's eliminated about 85-90% of it so far), and while it has helped with GAD/SAD (About 30-35% improved), I'm looking and hoping for much better results.
So here's my question for you; do you think I should stay at 75 MG for another week, or two, of three weeks and see if it improves, or should I increase to 90 MG ASAP?
Another question for anyone who has made the 75 MG to 90 MG transition... right now at 75 MG the side-effects are annoying but manageable. Should I expect them to get a lot worse at 90 MG? Will I develop new ones?
Thanks a bunch in advance.

In reply to Football, what else are you taking with Nardil?, posted by UgottaHaveHope on April 6, 2007, at 3:20:31
200 mg of provigil and 2 MG of Klonopin (I think it's too low of a does, because it hasn't really helped me.)
And Ambien for insomnia.

With me the orthostatic hypotension became intolerable when going from 60 to 75mg. Glad it's working for you.
