> > > I've read Chairman_Mao's information and experience about high dose Parnate and the 1989 study on pubmed.org. Anyways, is anybody on Parnate here considering trying this out? Chairman_Mao made it sound really good. Especially because I don't think there are a whole lot of good drugs you can augment Parnate with for Social Phobia, Depression, and ADD. Anyone asked their doctor about trying it? I think it would be hard for me to find a doctor willing to try this. I know of a really cheap Parnate source on the internet but even still it would cost nearly $150 to take 100mg/daily. And I don't know how high you would need to go...

I have been taking Parnate for most of the past 15 years, but it hasn't been doing the job lately. I began at 80mg and have just started 100mg increasing at about 10mg every 2 weeks or so. No improvement yet, but no increase in side effects either. I will keep everyone informed.

I may go up to 200mg depending on what my doctor says. As a point of information, I also take 1mg Ativan, 10mg Prinivil (an ACE inhibitor), 20mg Zocor, and 30mg Ritalin.
