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

Opioids given with non-selective MAO inhibitors such as phenelzine can lead to serotonin syndrome or to severe CNS depression, hypotension and hyperpyrexia. The reaction is best documented with meperidine, but labeling for morphine advises against use with MAOIs.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Morphine 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.

Morphine belongs to Musculoskeletal; Phenelzine belongs to Central Nervous System.

Livello di evidenza: Moderate

Perché avviene

MAO inhibition potentiates serotonergic and CNS depressant effects of the opioid through mechanisms not fully established for morphine.

Cosa fare

Avoid morphine during MAOI therapy and for 14 days after stopping phenelzine; choose a non-opioid or alternative analgesic. If an opioid is unavoidable, use specialist supervision with close monitoring.
