> Jade I'm sorry. Wish I had info for you. Are you thinking of patch again? It's expensive any way to get assistance drug companies etc. Love Phillipa
Hi Phillipa, yeah, I'm thinking of all MAOI's except Parnate cause this crazy Nifedipine, according to a medline search I did, can cause depression and all kinda nasty effects.
What I'm not sure of, is Nifedipine negating benefits of Parnate, or will all MAOI's poop-out on me. Emsam did at 6mg, after a week, no response to 9mg, then went to Parnate. Not sure if insurance would cover patch or not. Azaela suggested Seleligine (oral), then there's Nardil, and that other one, starts with an M. I'm suspecting I'm either doomed to any early, brief response on all, or I just need to titrate to higher doses. And get off this calcium channel blocker.
