> In'm about to start a Selegiline trial, with Nardil on deck just in case. If I have to switch, what's the wash out from one MAOI to another? Hopefully just a few days....or longer?

They say 14 days. Too much IMO. I switched to Parnate 1 day after Nardil and then the next day back to Nardil!

Then after 2 weeks 4 days I switched, after a 50 hour washout, to Nardil again. No probs at all.

Too be safe, and this is if your not suffering greatly at the moment, I'd give it 7 days. I say this because I've read of a person having a stroke when switching between Parnate and Nardil without 7 days washout. But both times I switched I was suffering greatly- this suffering necissitated a quick switch.

Good luck!
Ace.
