Nardil Antidepressant Alternative

Updated

Nardil is a hard medication to be on. I was wondering if there are any other antidepressants that have the same effect as Nardil without the side effects?

You will not find any drug without side effects, the class of drug does not matter. How badly they affect you depends on your body and your metabolism.

I have been on Nardil for three months now. I am taking 45mg a day. Is this a typical dose?

I was on Nardil for about 6 years and it did work for my aniety / panic attacks very well. However my physiatrist said there are much cleaner meds available now for my type of condition. I was hesitant because the Nardil worked well but the limitations and constant worry of food reactions with Nardil were overwhelming. Nardil is a heavy hitter . I am now on pristiq and it works well, no food/ drug interactions very few if any side effects, makes me feel normal . Not as uppity as Nardil but safer
Pristiq has a bad rap for coming off this drug so consider that . As of now 5 years I'm staying on. Hope this helps

I as on Nardil for 7 years , it is a heavy hitter for sure, works good but the restrictions are daunting you have to be very careful on your food / medications for interaction . I am now on pristiq and it also works well without the restrictions
Good luck to you
