Resumo

Apraclonidine is an alpha-2 agonist eye drop with limited systemic exposure, but labeling contraindicates its use with MAOIs. MAOIs may alter catecholamine handling and unpredictably change blood pressure responses.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Apraclonidine and Tranylcypromine 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.

Apraclonidine belongs to Cardiovascular; Tranylcypromine belongs to Central Nervous System.

Nível de evidência: Low

Por que acontece

The mechanism is not well established; MAOI-related changes in catecholamine metabolism may alter responses to alpha-agonists.

O que fazer

Avoid apraclonidine in patients on tranylcypromine and select another ocular hypotensive agent such as a prostaglandin analogue or beta-blocker as appropriate. If it is unavoidable, monitor blood pressure and heart rate.
