I have been on 45 mg Parnate for a month and since increasing from 30 mg I have been getting severely oily skin and insane cystic acne.
I wonder what mechanism causes this. I wonder if this only occurs in people with acne-prone skin because my skin certainly is, but Ive never had anything so severe like this.
NOT looking for skincare advice. Im switching to Nardil after a washout period which Im looking forward to. Its really what I should have been rxd in the first place due to my SA. I hope washing out is not awful. Parnate at 45 mg was still not touching the anxiety although it was useful for a fairly noticeable mood lift every initial week after increasing my dose and a little mood lift thereafter.
Thats my update, thanks for reading.

Good luck on Nardil. Crushing social anxiety is one thing it definitely did for me.
