And vice versa one would imagine. The results of the study you posted show that would Nardil appear to be a suitable alternative for patients refractory to Parnate. It does not show that there are no clinical differences between the two. There are very important differences in terms of active metabolites, and therefore clinical effects. Ultimately therapy is most likely to benefit personality disorder, though not all patients can use therapy effectively, particularly those with undiagnosed borderline personality disorder.
