When I lower my Nardil dosage from 60 to 45mg I lose the antidepressant effect. I also lose a lot of the side affects, but that doesn't really help if I lose efficacy. I'm a large man and body size does make a difference. I don't need the 1mg/kg dosage but 60mg is my minimum effective dose. Everybody is different. If you go on Nardil and can tough out a slow taper, I would also suggest finding the minimum dose for you personally. As dosage goes up, so do the side effects. I have been on dosages up to 120mg and have augmented with nortriptyline and bupropion.
Be well my friend,
