Ell said:yeah 1 mg/day oral is well within competitive maoi-b. you'd have to be on probably 15/day oral to get mao-a inhibition in 1 week, and even then it's a stretch. i've taken 10/ every other day for weeks with no mao-a inhibition (didn't have reaction to tyramine). though when i ate chocolate it got me every so slightly buzzed =) (the pea). i think it's a great alternative to just increasing doses of stimulants. deprenyl has been proven to be neuroprotective for mdma use. you're not going to run the risk of serotonin syndrome because of the deprenyl's mao inhibition. if you take a dose low enough to be competitive mao-b (to be safe <10mg), what can happen is the dopaminergic aspect of mdma is potentiated and you go into hypertensive crisis because of that. serotonin syndrome would be independently based on your mdma dose and your tolerance. if you really want to be safe, you should start at even lower than 50% of your average mdma dose; 25% would be good, and take between 1 and 2.5 mg deprenyl. just make sure you don't keep redosing with deprenyl over the period of a roll. that will make hypertensive crisis much more likely.
i really have to reiterate. i only have experience with deprenyl + d-amp/ methylphenidate, not mdma or other psychedelics.
i guess if things go badly, you could just down a lot of fruit juice or something acidic to speed up the mdma metabolism.
don't take any sedatives on the downer though (that is if there is one: the reason you're taking the deprenyl is to avoid it). benzo's, barbiturates, opiods, can and probably will react unpredictably with deprenyl.
thanks for your reply, everything makes sense now
i was thinking i would just take a large dose of l-theanine (500mg) if i need to relax from it
