In reply to Aderall and Nardil --- DO NOT DO THIS, posted by CK1 on November 12, 2005, at 11:07:17
I'm sorry you had such a bad experience with this combination SK1
However I'm not sure if your right to conclude that the combination is a bad one for everyone, thats a fairly big assertion.
I would like to know what dosage of Adderall you took with your Nardil.
Adding a high dose stimulant onto an MAOI is obviously very dangerous!
As I always say 'Start Low, go Slow!'Even those who addivicate combining stimulants with MAOIs warn that it should be done very carefully.
I think a Stimulant can be combined with an MAOI if one is very careful.
Afterall Maxine was on Dexedrine and Parnate, and she never had a reaction (to the best of my knowlage)Having said all this I never tried combining a stimulant with Marplan, other than caffeine :)
So I'm no expert!Obviously its better to stay clear of stimulants if one is taking an MAOI, but for some people I think Stimulant+MAOI can be very helpfull, but please, please be carefull!
I should also point out that some stimulants are leffal with MAOIs, such as Ephedrine!
Here is a list of MAOI plus stimulant combos, provided by the lovely Maxine
