In reply to Nardil/Parnate - better for males???, posted by sjb on November 21, 2001, at 7:29:39
> Why does it seem that those who have the most benefits from Nardil/Parnate, including relatively few food side-effects are male??? Is it my imagination?
I think that women may be more susceptible to weight gain from MAOIs; certainly, women are more likely to be bothered by weight gain. AFAIK, men and women are equally likely to benefit from MAOIs. Atypical depression, for which MAOIs are often the only thing that works, is more common in women than in men.
