I have had a couple of hypertensive episodes in my 15 years of Nardil use. The worse was when I took nipehepine as an antidote and spent a night in the hospital when the hypertensive crisis passed and the niphedipine continued to lower my blood pressure. I no longer carry an antidote.
Nardil is not really a dangerous med, but it demands respect. You must take your self education to another level. If you use the drug long term, as I do, you are the one that will be educating the medical community. Many people in the medical field know absolutely nothing about MAOIs.
You have to read labels very carefully and make sure you know what is in prescription meds. I never take a new medication without checking it out for myself. I do not trust pharmacists or MDs. I trust my own knowledge and my ability to research a medication thoroughly for reactions. For example, codeine for a cough is just fine. Mix it with a decongestant, which is often done, not good!
Be careful out there,
