Sintesi

Inhibition of MAO slows catecholamine metabolism and enlarges neuronal stores, and dobutamine is a catecholamine inotrope with beta-1 agonist and some alpha activity. The pressor and chronotropic response to dobutamine can therefore be exaggerated, with severe hypertension, headache and arrhythmia.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Dobutamine and Isocarboxazid can interact in a way that may be serious. Using them together is sometimes necessary, but it needs a deliberate decision by the prescriber, a plan for monitoring, and clear advice on the warning signs to watch for.

Dobutamine belongs to Cardiovascular; Isocarboxazid belongs to Central Nervous System.

Livello di evidenza: Moderate

Perché avviene

Reduced catecholamine degradation (MAO inhibition) with sympathomimetic stimulation

Cosa fare
