Hi Link
AFAIK........In the absense of MAO-A, serotonin is metabolised by MAO-B. As shown in the study I posted above, clorgyline only mildly increased serotonin levels wheareas Nardil greatly increased serotonin levels. This could be an important reason why moclobemide's efficacy may be less than that of Nardil.
