In reply to Re: Parnate-Sharing Dr Ivan Goldberg's A's to my Q's, posted by bulldog2 on October 21, 2009, at 12:21:28
> I was on a site askaptient where you can see how a drug is rated. The ssris came in with ratings in the 3 area. By the way the system was 1 -5 with 5 being the best. Nardil and parnate had ratings over 4 so the maois had the best ratings.So maybe give parnate more time as it may be a better ad than the newer ads.Yes, I have visited that site and people really rave about Parnate. I'm sure it is better than the newer AD's, its considered the ultimate AD by many people (apart from the dangerous side effects)
I am continuing taking my dose but plan to titrate up faster and then make a decision about it.
But I am so glad I asked Dr Goldberg especially about the Provigil. He said 200mg max (and if you read his tips on the drug tips page you will see that he is not a doctor who is scared to augment freely).
My doctor told me that I can take 600mg + of Provigil (which frankly I was dubious about in the first place)! Glad I double checked.
