I've been on Parnate for 9 weeks now, w/ no positive response.
I'm currently at 70 mgs./day & have been at 60 or more over for 4 weeks.
Has anyone successfully augmented their Parnate medication w/ a non-prescription supplement for help w/: helping Parante work, lack of energy, depression, anhedonia, concentration, etc.
I know Parnate's reputation for mixing other substances & causing serious reactions.
For this reason, I would not try anything, which is not well recommended & pretty safe to try.
Any suggestions, personal experiences, &/or medical journals will be much appreciated.
Thanks For Your Time & Consideration,
Take Care & Be Well,Eric M. Wagner

People HAVE carefully combined it with stimulants and l-tryptophan in teh past. Do a pubmed search. But this is dangerous and should be done with a doctor.
I'm on 40mg of parnate (just started last week) and have for a long time taken chromium picolinate, omega-3, B-100 vitamin, and magnesium glycinate for sleep/restlessness at night. Not sure if any of them really help, though in the past I did feel that magnesium helped with restlessness. But it's not enough to touch the parnate sleep issues, which I hope will eventually abate.
There is always DHEA, DL-Phenylalanine, but both could be dangerouns (DHEA probably less so)

Parnate can be combined with a tricyclic antidepressant (except for clomipramine)in standard doses.
It can also be combined with bupropion (Welbutrin)
