> Steeler, have you tried lamictal, pindolol, and ritalin to boost the MAOI? I'm just checking--it would be a shame to do ECT if your doctor hasn't covered all the bases. The first time for me on Nardil it took 5 weeks to work--I don't know if that's relevant for a second try on an MAOI. shellie
Shellie,
When the Parnate started to poop out years ago we tried augmenting it with Lamictal, Depakote, Tegretol, Lithium and even dexedrine. Also have tried fish oils and Synthroid (which I continue to take).
That is not to say that one of these augmenting agents might not work now, but I am hesitant to go down that road again.Thanks for your input
Steeler
