I am desperately seeking my next medication(s) after Nardil went from AMAZING to mediocre and caused me to pack on 50lbs.
Has anyone had experience with Marplan? Seems like a logical next step as Nardil and Parnate have worked best for me out of all the drugs I've been on...
Please share your Marplan knowledge/experiences.
THANKS!

> THANKS!Marplan is less likely to cause weight gain than Nardil, but more so than Parnate. There is little - if any - evidence that Marplan is a more effective antidepressant than Parnate and Nardil, but it may still be worth trying in order to determine which of the three MAOI drugs discussed is the best compromise between efficacy and side-effects. Once you've found your MAOI of choice, the best way to proceed may be to find one or more other drugs (or supplements, etc.) to augment it with.
