Hi,
Several years ago, while on a Parnate trial, I had a spontaneous hypertensive episode. There was no known cause and at the time I switched back to my standby Nardil. Currently I am off all ADs, but every time I've been off MAOIs in the past 11 years, my major depression has returned within months.I have also had some spontaneous increases in BP while on Nardil, but these were less acute than the one on Parnate. Just enough to make a person feel sick and want to lie down. Parnate is known to cause more spontaneous rises in BP than the other MAOIs.
Good Luck,
Jedi
