> I have a friend who is taking Nardil and is almost up to the maximim dosage. For most patients Nardil is sufficient to provide relief, but for him it is not enough. He asked me to try to find out if there are any possible drugs that could be taken with Nardil to enhance its effects. He is having difficulty finding anyone in our town who has expert knowledge about this. If you have any suggestions at all about antidepressants that could be helpful if taken in combination with Nardil, your comments would be most helpful. Thanks.

Wynn: though I cannot answer your question re. enhancing the effects of NARDIL, I can tell you of a drug to avoid; i.e., DEMEROL (meperidine) which is a common enough pain killer that is used in most pain management situations. A NARDIL/DEMEROL mix is fatal, no question about this. I would have you suggest to your friend to carry a card, or some identification, that says he is on NARDIL in the event he's unable to speak.
A word to the wise is sufficient.
