I'm not sure if MAOIs are contraindicated with Ephedra, but my guess is any doctor would say, "Do not mix!" Ephedra is dangerous enough on its own without mixing it with an MAOI. Put the Ephedra aside and give the Parnate a chance to work. After two or three weeks, you might not even want it anymore.
> MAOI's are counterindicated with sudafed (pseudoephedrine) so I am guessing they would be counterindicated with pure ephedrine.
