can you take wellbutrin with an MAOI?
OK, so I'm too chicken to go off zoloft before
switching to an MAOI.. Don't need the major depression.Maybe I can switch to Wellbutrin for a while then switch to the MAOI.
Like Zoloft, Wellbutrin is effective for my depression (neither helps alot with anxiety),
but if I can stay on Wellbutin when I add the MAOi (say PARNATE), then I avoid depression hell.....probably being a baby and should just bite
the bullet on a Zoloft->Parnate switch.James

Hi James.First of all, you might want to give a Zoloft + Wellbutrin combination a try first. It is sometimes called "Welloft". You should be able to mix Wellbutrin with an MAOI. I combined it with Parnate 80mg without any trouble.

I was given Trazadone with Nardil. I's sedative as heck. Which helped me sleep. Just a thought.
