You and Chairman MAO are both right. I feel that the effective range for the average patient suffering from major depressive disorder (MDD) is 40-80 mg/day. I've been arguing with doctors about this for years. With me, I do as well at 80 mg/day as I do at 150 mg/day. However, at the higher dosages, I get very sleepy. Jay Amsterdam, in his studies of high-dosage tranylcypromine (Parnate) used up to 170 mg/day. I would agree with the Chairman that it doesn't make much sense to exceed 200 mg/day.
