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

Procarbazine has MAO-inhibiting activity, and dexmethylphenidate releases and blocks reuptake of catecholamines. The combination can provoke a hypertensive crisis with severe headache, arrhythmia, and risk of intracranial haemorrhage.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Dexmethylphenidate and Procarbazine 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.

Dexmethylphenidate belongs to Central Nervous System; Procarbazine belongs to Oncology.

Livello di evidenza: Moderate

Perché avviene

MAO inhibition increases stores of catecholamines, so the sympathomimetic effects of the stimulant are exaggerated.

Cosa fare

Do not use together or within 14 days of stopping procarbazine. Choose a non-stimulant alternative where needed.
