In reply to EXP'NCED P'BABLRS PLS ADVISE: Parnate or Effexor? , posted by Jack Smith on March 3, 2003, at 12:32:28

Provided you are willing to follow the MAOI
diet, I would go for Parnate. MAOI's are good for atypical depression.I think Effexor is a good choice, too, but you do have valid conserns about having to commit to Effexor for an extended time.
You can always try it if parnate does not work.
Keep in mind, not following the correct diet could
lead to serious problems and even death, with most MAOI's.
