> Well I been on Nardil for over 8 months now. I would say the benefits have been very good. Lately though I have been wanting to get off the drug and see how I do. I am thinking I can always go back on it if I need too.

2 weeks is enough taper - lose 15mg every 3 days.
Weight will be back to normal within 6 weeks according to data.
I'm using the same reasoning - it's alaways there if we need it again.
The manafacturer in Australia and UK said to me (a consumer advice person) It will NEVER die.
It'll always be around.
What dose are you at?
Are you going to Parnate or anything else?
Cheers Nick,
Ace.
