MAOI upper limits

Posted by sailboat77 on February 27, 2012, at 14:39:08

I'm currently on 60mg of Parnate (30 in the morning, 30 in the afternoon), but I'm wondering if going on a higher dose may be of more benefit. I've been on Parnate for well-over a year and completed TMS treatments about 6 weeks ago. MAOI's give me a slight-medium improvement in mood, but I feel as though I'm lacking right now and have room for more improvement.

I know the rule of thumb is that 60mg of Parnate is the limit, but has anyone had success with a higher dosage or heard of benefits above 60mg?

I believe SLS finds 80mg more beneficial.

Yes. I don't get the most out of Parnate until I reach a dosage of 80 mg. 60 mg just doesn't do it for me.
