SLS, Nice to have your "dosing schedule" and "how to" advice for Nardil and/or Nortrip handy if and when I need another plan.
Nardil was the first drug I repsonded to when I first sought medication relief for my deprssion in 1987 after 2-3 years of "therapy" with no improvement. I was only on 15 mg BID, so if I tried Nardil again, I would know to go up as high as 60 mg before calling it done.
As far as I remember, I only tried Elavil once and was very uncomfortable with the SE's of dry mouth and pupil dilitation.
Do you believe it makes sense for me to start with Nortrip too or go directly to Nardil since I had a response,even though it was many light years ago.
Thanks for your "recipe", I'll keep it handy if I need to test it out. I'm currently in a holding pattern with Emsam waiting on a referral with another pdoc since I have lost much time to incomplete remissions and my depression is becoming more resilient to any treatment short of trying the big guns, which I refuse...Stargazer
