These comments are made for the purpose of discussion and should NOT be used as recommendations for or against therapies or other treatments. An individual patient is always advised to consult their own physician.

Nardil

Question: I take the MAO inhibitor Nardil. I am very familiar with the foods that I cannot eat. However, I think I read a list of “banned foods” once that included the artificial sweetener Aspartame. Now I cannot find a list that includes Aspartame. Is it safe to drink diet drinks containing Aspartame while on a MAO inhibitor such as Nardil?

Answer: Not a problem as far as I know.
