Ce que signifie cette interaction, en termes simples

Pourquoi elle survient
Bupropion inhibits noradrenaline and dopamine reuptake while MAO inhibition increases catecholamine stores, producing excessive adrenergic stimulation; bupropion also lowers seizure threshold.

Do not combine; wait at least 14 days after stopping phenelzine before starting bupropion, and at least 14 days after bupropion before starting phenelzine is a conservative approach. Use a different smoking cessation or antidepressant strategy during MAOI treatment.
