I think the thing to keep in mind with a MAOI switch is that if you have completely inhibited MAO with teh first drug, if you switch w/in a day, then the new drug will not be binding to MAO, and so (in the case of parnate) can just have its other effects like catecholamine release, even at low dosage. hence waiting a day or two, and starting low dosage (at least if you're the cautious type)
