Resumo

Cocaine blocks reuptake of norepinephrine, dopamine and serotonin, while phenelzine prevents breakdown of these amines. Together they can cause marked sympathetic stimulation with severe hypertension, hyperthermia, arrhythmias and serotonin toxicity. Topical cocaine has limited absorption but the combination is still labeled as contraindicated.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Cocaine 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.

Cocaine belongs to Central Nervous System; Phenelzine belongs to Central Nervous System.

Nível de evidência: Moderate

Por que acontece

Irreversible MAO inhibition plus monoamine reuptake blockade leads to excess synaptic catecholamines and serotonin.
