I talked to my doctor about trying mazindol yesterday and he couldn't find it on his PDA which he said had just been updated. I would be using it to treat negative symptoms of schizophrenia like apathy, anhedonia, lack of emotion, and anergia. My pharmacist couldn't find much either but said that it was an 'orphan' drug that was used to treat muscular dystrophy. I've also read other places that it is a weight loss drug off-label. Anybody tried mazindol or does anybody know if its still sold in the U.S.?
Thanks,
Tom
