Hi Cee,
Thank you for sharing your story and for writing about your trials with various medications. It sounds like you respond particularly well to MAOI antidepressants, and I think it's interesting that taking some of the inactive ingredients from the "old" Nardil separately before taking your Nardil seemed to boost the effectiveness of the medication, at least for a brief period of time. It's too bad, though, that you haven't seemed to find a way to get your Nardil to work as well as the old version seemed to work for you over the long haul. I never tried the "old" Nardil myself, and I did have some success with using enteric capsules to prolong the therapeutic benefits of Nardil when I took it, but as you said, the pharmaceutical glaze coating is just one of the differences between the old and new versions of Nardil, and so it doesn't surprise me that re-creating an enteric coating doesn't work for everyone who was affected by the formulation change. I really hope that this rumor that you mentioned in your first post will turn out to be true, so those who were affected by the formulation change and haven't found an effective replacement for Nardil will have a chance to once again take the right version of the medication that worked so well for them. I know that different methods were tried to get "new" Nardil to perform more like "old" Nardil, including creating a liquid Nardil, putting Nardil into enteric capsules, and using a compounded version of Nardil to slow the drug's release, and although all three methods worked for certain individuals, it doesn't seem like any of the methods worked for everybody who was affected by the formulation change. I do wish you luck in your attempts to make "new" Nardil work better, though. I hope that you end up finding a way to get the medication to work at least a little bit better for you.
Take care,
