Moclobemide is a reversible inhibitor of monoamine-oxidase-A (RIMA) and has been extensively evaluated in the treatment of a wide spectrum of depressive disorders and less extensively studied in anxiety disorders. Nearly all meta-analyses and most comparative studies indicated that in the acute
Mackerel fillets associated with an outbreak of scombrotoxicosis have been analysed for their contents of cadaverine, histamine, putrescine, spermidine, spermine and tyramine, and fed to informed, healthy volunteers of both sexes under medical supervision. Of the 86 fillets examined, 30 rapidly
As most diet therapy texts provide little information about psychiatric illnesses and their treatment, this article is intended as a brief introduction for dietitians. Several psychiatric illnesses, including schizophrenia, mood disorders, eating disorders, and substance abuse, may adversely affect
Tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) are notorious for a number of disadvantages, but particularly for an array of side-effects that leads to poor compliance, and also for a dangerous toxicity in overdose. Lofepramine is a new tricyclic that seems safer. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs)
Knowledge and insight of pharmacologic safety issues and drug interactions are important for medical management of Parkinson's disease (PD). This review will discuss several topics, including apomorphine safety and interactions, impulsivity and excessive daytime somnolence associated with dopamine
Moclobemide, a new selective and reversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase A (RIMA), has been compared with various tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) in numerous controlled studies. Pooled data from these studies, comprising 1656 patients, as well as the consideration of individual trials, show that
Moclobemide, a benzamidederivate, is a reversible, selective MAOI with a predominant effect upon MAO-A. In clinical trials with moclobemide so far no clearcut tyramine interaction leading to a hypertensive crisis has been reported and no case of hepatotoxicity has been observed. Open and
Deprenyl, a selective inhibitor of monoamine oxidase, type B, which is free of the "tyramine effect," may ameliorate symptom fluctuations in advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). We randomized 96 patients with marked symptom fluctuations at three centers to receive either deprenyl 5 mg b.i.d. or
OBJECTIVE
Biogenic amines are compounds synthesized in human body which in high concentration become toxic and lead to a wide range of symptoms as palpitations, nausea and headache. Meat products can contain high levels of biogenic amines. Ingestion of such product can cause severe illness. For
We reviewed reactions previously reported in patients treated with isoniazid, who ate certain fish and cheeses. We observed similar reactions in two patients after they ingested cheese and wine. Isoniazid is an inhibitor of both monoamine and diamine oxidases, which contribute to the metabolism of
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the neuromuscular activity of the gastrointestinal tract by antroduodenal manometry in women with endometriosis documented by laparoscopy, to assess the effects of diet and drug therapy on symptoms, and to assess the bacterial overgrowth that is commonly associated with
Clinical trials have shown that linezolid (600 mg twice daily in adults) is safe and generally well tolerated for up to 28 days. Drug-related adverse events, which are typically mild to moderate in intensity and of limited duration, include diarrhoea, nausea and headache in adults, and diarrhoea,
A review of the clinical efficacy of four structurally distinct antidepressant drugs is presented. Their antidepressant activity can be rationalised within current pharmacological hypotheses of drug action, despite markedly different effects on "in vitro" testing. Fluoxetine, a specific serotonin
Selegiline (deprenyl), a selective, irreversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase type B (MAO-B) is widely used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. As the first MAO-B inhibitor approved for the treatment of Parkinson's disease, concerns were raised about the safety of the drug based on the
