> I have been on Nardil 30mg bd for a week now, according to an article in The Medical Journal of Australia, the target dose for Phenelzine in panic disorderis 1mg/kg/day, with a usual maximum of 90mg.

> Does this sound reasonable?Just know that there is a latency of 3 - 5 few days between when you raise the dosage of Nardil and the appearance of side effects. Be careful. Nardil can lull you into a false sense of security with dosage escalation. I think it is a great idea to target 90 mg/day. Just titrate sensibly. It is better to avoid hypotension and urinary retension than to treat them once they are triggered.
When I take Nardil, I divide it into three doses each day.
Good luck.
