I'm going to be starting Nardil in a few weeks, so I'm starting to think about all the risks associated with MAOIs.
So my question is the following:
If for any reason I had some kind of accident, and/or required surgery, would Nardil make it impossible for me to be given any kind of anesthesia? I read that local or full anesthesia are contraindicated with MAOIs, so what would happen in such a situation? Would I have to be operated without anesthesia?
A similar question is that I am having some dental procedures done, which also require local anesthesia. How would one proceed in such a situation?
And after surgery, I would also need pain-killers to minimize the pain. Are there any substitutes for the ones contraindicated with MAOIs?
Thanx in advance for any info
