Ultimo aggiornamento

Per operatori sanitari — solo a scopo di riferimento. Questa pagina è una sintesi breve, non è un parere medico e non sostituisce il RCP ufficiale né il giudizio clinico. Verificare sempre prima di prescrivere o dispensare.

Il contenuto clinico di questa pagina è disponibile solo in inglese.

Sintesi

Combining an MAO inhibitor with buprenorphine may cause serotonin syndrome or opioid toxicity, including respiratory depression and coma. Long-acting injectable buprenorphine cannot be quickly withdrawn, which prolongs exposure if a reaction occurs. Labeling advises against use during or within 14 days of MAOI therapy.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Buprenorphine long-acting and Phenelzine are not normally used together. Taking them at the same time is expected to cause harm or make one of them unsafe, so a different medicine is usually chosen for one of the two.

Livello di evidenza: Moderate

Perché avviene

Additive serotonergic effects and potentiation of opioid CNS and respiratory depression, possibly through altered opioid metabolism, in the setting of MAO inhibition.

Cosa fare

Do not start long-acting buprenorphine within 14 days of stopping phenelzine or while it is being taken. Choose a non-serotonergic alternative or allow an adequate washout.
