I was on Parnate, successfully for over 20 years. About a month ago, I had an apparent hypertensive crisis, after eating in a restaurant. I kind of decided on the spur of the moment to try a new med. (I was also having low blood pressure on Parnate) A psychiatrist prescribed Remeron. I was off Parnate for 15 days, then started remerom (15-30-45 milligrams) two weeks ago. Still I have continued to be very depressed and perhaps the worst depression since I started Parnate.
I have a question about how long I would have to stop Remeron before starting Parnate again. According to Wikipedia there is no documentation about dangerous Parnate/Remeron interactions, but it is difficult to find reliable information. Since the Physicians tend to be conservative, probably my Pdoc will suggest two weeks, but I would like to have more information about this.
