I would appreciate anyone w/ positive/negative experiences while taking Parnate to please share them
I began Tranylcypromine Sulfate (Generic Parnate) 3 weeks ago
I took:
10 mgs. for 5 days
20 mgs. for 5 days
30 mgs. for 5 days
I have now been on 40 mgs. for about a week
My Dr. said w/ the lack of side effects, I could go up to 40 mgs.
I'm guessing that's the highest he wants me on - for now?
I believe the FDA max. is 60 mgs./day
I've also seen somewhere it said no higher than 120 mgs./day
Many of the posts I have read, some people do not see any positive effects until upwards of 80 mgs./day & I have read many are on 120 mgs./day & even up to 200 mgs./day
I have a very high tolerance for medications & was wondering if anyone has any insight on this
I'm an otherwise healthy 33 year old male
I have been on many, many medications for depression/ADD for the past 10 years, w/ only a short-lived, very positive response to Methylphenidate
Any response will be much appreciated
