FDA Approved Drugs and User Comments: NARDIL

For Depression “I’ve taken Nardil for over 40 years, it’s an excellent drug, the diet & med restrictions are well worth it… Be sure you carry your card or have a medical bracelet”

For Depression “I had been on this in 1982 for years , (it worked , but then no one wanted to prescribe it) . After many different SSRI combos and add ons ,and finally Bupropion , and even TMS nothing. Went back on 75mg of Nardil my whole attitude has changed, everyone at work has noticed. This should be treated as a drug of last resort though. There are over a 1000 drug interactions, not to mention the food issues”

For Depression “I had been in and out of the hospital for many years, tried all classes of anti depressants and even several in different classes, BICYCLICS, TRICYCLICS, then most of the SSRI’s. After continuing to get worse, my doctor and I decided to try ECT (shock treatment). I received 13 treatments (and no, it was nothing like One Flew Over The Cookoo’s Nest lol) but it also didn’t help at all. Thirty years burning down the road, nowhere to run, got nowhere to go… he, as a last ditch effort, tried Nardil and to almost sound trite, I pulled a full 180 degree turn around. There were a few side-effects, some weight gain and a lessor libido and difficulty to orgasm, though if you knew me now, you’d know NONE of these side effects exist any longer!”

For Depression “I took nardil for 4 years. It changed my personality drastically. I went from depressed and withdrawn to hypomanic (which is like half way to fully manic). Much more sociable and I also became a workaholic. The side effects were intolerable – extreme weight gain (gained 50 lbs which brought me over 200 lbs. had never been overweight before or since) and anorgasmia. I did prefer hypomania to unipolar depression but eventually I pooped out on it as everyone seems to do in these designer ADs within a few years. There was a study which found that MAOIs like Nardil can permanently damage your mu receptors preventing you from having the capability to experience euphoria and that happened to me also. I wish I never taken any of those drugs.”
