I think it is best to divide the dosage of Parnate into two even doses, morning and midday. The irreversible MAOIs don't have to be maintained to accomplish keeping the blood levels the same throughout the day. Once bound to the enzyme, it attaches indefinitely. All you need to do is to get enough Parnate down your throat to accomplish this permanent blockade. It can be dosed once a day if the side effects are tolerable. I think larger dosages should be divided, though. Maybe 60mg and over should be divided. It is important not to take Parnate any later than 3:00pm to help mitigate insomnia.
