> I just want to clarify a few things, so heres a list of questions on nardil:
>
> 1)Does dosage have anything to do with your weight?I think it really depends on the person. I gained 40lbs in 1 year (around 90mg's/day usually). from eating too much, god it made me hungry.
> 2)Has anyone experiencd orthostatic hypotension so bad it took away from the positive effects? This was after a increase to 105 mg's from 75.
This side effect was yerrible at first but went away after 3 weeks.
> 3)They say all the side effects go away eventually, is this true?
No! not in my experience. sexual side effects never got better. I kept gaining weight no matter what, always hungry. I looked drugged, everyone said.
> 4)how long should you stick on a dose if the previous had happened? was on 75 for 2 weeks when felt good effects in first place: mood, attitude, motivation increase, crazy euphoria,miss that! now back at the 75 for 2 1/2 weeks.
not quite sure what you mean..
> 5) should maiximum dose always be reached, or can you increase, and go back, say if you felt good on 75, but went to 90 for so long and thought it was too high, as in does going up have anything to do with if the drug will effect you sooner?
Max dose doesnt mean much if it will work or not. Starting at a high dose will definitely have the drug work faster because you will skip the time needed to titrate up. where should you start tho? thats the q
> 6)what is a good augmentation? I hear lyrica, how long does that take to effect you? or stimulants?
provigil works good and right away, lithium, lamictal. all three of those seemed to work well for me. esp lithium kept the nardil responce so very constant. provigil really energised me in a good way and was excellent for social anxiety.
> 7)does anyone have any good resources or articles on the maoi's with augmentation such as mood satbilizers or stimulants?
>
> thanks for any input.
