I feel your pain. I have the same side effect from Nardil. It makes it very difficult when I visit family in Florida, because they are used to the heat (they even turn on the furnace when it gets below 65!!!), and I'm usually dripping with sweat.

I don't have much in the way of advice. I tried lowering my Nardil dose recently in order to better cope with summer, but I had to bring it back up because I started getting more depressed. So I try to always have a fan blowing, though my husband hates feeling air blowing on him, so this is always a challenge. I also try to take cooler showers, otherwise I end up sweating again before I manage to get dressed. And I save my outdoor chores for early morning or end of the day whenever possible.

But it's hateful. I'm sorry you experience it, too.
