In reply to EMSAM patch 9 mg/24 hr experiences, posted by em_kath on December 16, 2009, at 16:47:57
Hi,
Welcome to psychobabble. I am also on the 9mg Emsam patch and have not had any problems with hypertension. My doctor told me that it is more a preacautionary measure since there have been no reported cases or at least she has never had one and she has quite a few patients on Emsam.
She also said that the warning applies more to the consumption of large amounts of tyramine rich foods or products. More like an entire block of blue cheese.
Good luck.ihatedrugs
