If you had the luxury of being prescribed Nardil, I would make the switch. I know two doctors who had their TRD patients rotate between Parnate and Nardil. With Nardil, doctors of old would have their patients take a "drug holiday" and abstain from taking Nardil for 3 months. Often, restarting Nardil after 3 months was able to recapture remission. I don't know about Parnate. What alternatate strategies has your doctor mentioned?
Might I suggest that you consider moving Parnate up to 60 mg/day and then add lithium 150-300 mg/day if necessary. Your last move is to move Parnate up to 80 mg/day.
What about adding lamotrigine?
