In reply to moclobemide for atypical depression, posted by Ines on March 14, 2007, at 17:42:48
> Hello everyone,
> I'm just facing a change in meds- reboxetine getting me worse rather than better. I really want something to work by yesterday, getting impatient about medication roller coaster... Anyway, I'm in the UK and the only MAOI my GP will agree to prescribe is moclobemide, although in his opinion it's not a very effective drug. I have chronic atypical depression, some anxiety and some obsessive tendencies (but depression definitely overrides everything else). Does anyone have similar symptoms and positive or negative experiences with moclobemide?
> Thanks! InesHi Everyone
Sorry for late response to your post, only just come accross the site. I have been taking Moclobemide for 5 months having tried SSRI's resulting in nasty side effects. I have depression, chronic panic attacks and am agoraphobic. Since taking the medication I have returned to work, and a near normal life, this drug has certainly helped with my symptoms, however one side effect weight gain. Was wondering if anyone else had the same side effect?
