Parnate Side Effects: An Introduction

As with any medicine, there are possible side effects with Parnate^® (tranylcypromine sulfate). However, not everyone who takes the medication will experience side effects. In fact, most people tolerate the drug well. When people do develop Parnate side effects, in many cases they are minor, meaning they either require no treatment or can easily be treated by you or your healthcare provider.

(This article covers many, but not all, of the possible side effects with Parnate. Your healthcare provider can discuss a more complete list of Parnate side effects with you.)
