ANY SUCCESS-MOCLOBEMIDE AND ATYPICAL DEPRESSION?

Posted by DINGBAT on March 1, 2002, at 9:20:29

Hi guys,
I know that the drug of choice for atypical depression is an MAOI (e.g., Parnate). Anyone know if the 'selective' MAOI's like moclobemide or selegiline are AS EFFECTIVE with atypical depression? I'm trying to avoid the (over-stated) side-effects of classical, non-selective MAOI's. But, having said that, selegiline (Deprenyl) is usually only effective for depression at doses that are not selective?! Also, Parnate is much cheaper in South Africa than any of the other AD's
Any comments will be appreciated.
