概要

Methylene blue inhibits MAO-A and, with SSRIs like citalopram, can cause severe serotonin syndrome. Reactions can include altered mental status, hyperthermia, seizures and neuromuscular abnormalities.

この相互作用をわかりやすく説明すると

Citalopram and Methylene blue 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.

エビデンスレベル: High

なぜ起こるのか

Reversible MAO-A inhibition by methylene blue added to SSRI-mediated serotonin reuptake blockade.

対処法

Avoid unless methylene blue is needed for an emergency; then stop citalopram and monitor for CNS toxicity. Resume only after the labeled interval after the last methylene blue dose.
