I've been reading
http://www.anxietyhelp.org/treatment/medication/nardil.html
Apart from appearing to be mostly wingnuts, they go on about lot 6085002 which is alleged to be ineffective and rancid. My pills do smell a bit but some pills do don't they? But according to the pictures of the pills I've got the old lot. Most of all - horrors - they're made by Senegalese immigrants in France which for some illogical reason makes them inferior to American ones.
Anyone considered taking famotidine or Losec to raise stomach pH to overcome alleged inadequacies with the enteric coating so the pills get safely through to the small intestine?
Why don't Dr's sort this out? Why should we have to fight these battles? We're sick

My pharmacist is a dear bloke. I faxed him my concerns and within 5 minutes he rang me with the info that my lot came from LINK in the UK. He was concerned that the enteric coating didn't look too good, but I said I take famotidine to raise stomach pH, so the drug should make it to the small intestine. He laughed, so I don't know whether my idea would work or not Fred
