Resumo

Procarbazine has monoamine oxidase inhibitor activity, and amoxapine is a tricyclic antidepressant that inhibits noradrenaline and serotonin reuptake. Together they can cause serotonin syndrome or hypertensive reactions, with agitation, hyperthermia, autonomic instability and seizures.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Amoxapine 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.

Nível de evidência: Moderate

Por que acontece

MAO inhibition combined with reuptake inhibition raises synaptic monoamine concentrations, with additive serotonergic and adrenergic effects.

O que fazer

Avoid the combination. Leave a washout period of at least 14 days after stopping procarbazine before starting amoxapine, and the reverse as well.
