Resumo

Combining an irreversible MAO inhibitor with meperidine can cause severe, potentially fatal reactions, including serotonin syndrome with hyperthermia, rigidity, agitation and coma, and in some cases severe hypertension or respiratory depression. The combination is contraindicated in labeling.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Meperidine 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.

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

Nível de evidência: High

Por que acontece

Phenelzine irreversibly inhibits MAO, and meperidine blocks serotonin reuptake, producing excessive serotonergic activity.

O que fazer

Do not use together. Avoid meperidine for at least 14 days after stopping phenelzine and choose a safer opioid such as morphine with caution.
