I've only been on Nardil for two weeks, but I've been eating thai food (which supposedly is a no-no because of the fish sauce) and stuff with soy sauce and teriaki. No problems so far, but I never eat super huge portions. I even ate a couple slices of pizza the other day which is funny because I never liked cheese before starting Nardil. I've always been a super picky eater and have always ate just to get rid of my stomach ache, even though no food ever sounded good. I think I will gain a lot of weight on Nardil which is good in my case. Ironic that the Nardil makes me like cheese but now I can't eat it, isn't it?

I take 60 mg twice daily, 30 in the morning, 30 at night. I read somewhere that it was supposed to work best if you take your whole daily dose all at once, but the side effects are also supposed to be worse that way. I think it has to do with the Nardil interfering with it's own metabolism, since Nardil is primarily metabolized via oxidation by MAO.
