No, it was created in hopes (I think) of avoiding severe MAOI problems, but in the end, as the monograph reads, that only is with the lowest dose with caveats to protect their behinds. When you need more than that, it does seem to me to be maybe not a zero sum gain but not much of a notch down from just generic selegeline (I think its generic now).
