And we also don't >know of any *other* drugs that the patient may be taking, either. Wow, nobody told me about tyramine, cheese and red wine. I started taking Selegiline (5mg) three to four weeks ago and was instructed just last week to add another 5mg daily, after lunch. This holiday season has been unusually heavy on cheese and wine. Could this be the reason I've been feeling so awful for the last week. I had assumed it was probably a profound lack of rest and holiday stress, but I have been burdened with many joint and other body aches which I have never had to put up with before.??? I also take inhalers (Pulmicort and Serevent) for asthma, which has also begun to bother me, just a little bit, at the same time.
