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

Cyclobenzaprine is structurally related to tricyclic antidepressants, and its labeling contraindicates use with or within 14 days of MAO inhibitors. Combining it with selegiline, an MAO inhibitor, can cause serotonin syndrome, hypertensive crisis, severe convulsions, and death.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Cyclobenzaprine and Selegiline transdermal 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

Inhibition of MAO by selegiline combined with the serotonergic and noradrenergic reuptake effects of cyclobenzaprine leads to excess monoamine activity.

Cosa fare

Avoid the combination and choose a non-serotonergic muscle relaxant. Allow a washout of at least 14 days after stopping an MAO inhibitor before starting cyclobenzaprine.
