After the establishment of its lack of relevant interference with tyramine pressure response, clinical trials were launched in 1977 and further trials confirmed the broad antidepressant activity of RIMAs. [108] Inhibition of the serotonin metabolite is less pronounced than the norepinephrine metabolite which suggests there are other major metabolic pathways for serotonin other than MAO-A. [112] Long-term treatment with moclobemide leads to an increase in cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) binding to cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). [81] Moclobemide is also likely to interact with warfarin. [62] Moclobemide does not have any adverse effect on cognitive abilities, thus there are no impairments of moclobemide therapy on memory, attention functions nor is ability to drive a motor vehicle affected adversely. [117] Moclobemide has been reported to be a mixed MAO-A/MAO-B inhibitor in rats but in man, it has been reported to be a pure MAO-A inhibitor,[118] blocking the decomposition of norepinephrine, serotonin and, to a lesser extent, dopamine. [129] Moclobemide was the first reversible MAO-A inhibitor to be widely marketed[130] Moclobemide as well as other newer antidepressants such as the SSRIs lead to changes in prescribing patterns and broadened the treatment options for the management of depressive disorders. Moclobemide is considered to be less toxic in overdose compared to older antidepressants, such as the tricyclic antidepressants and the irreversible and non-selective MAOIs,[9] making it a safer antidepressant in the elderly or people with physical disorders. Excretion of homovanillic acid and vanillylmandelic acid via urine is also reduced. with other CNS active drugs) may show severe or life-threatening symptoms and should be hospitalized. [8] Testosterone levels increase significantly with long-term use of moclobemide in depressed males. The following are the potential adverse effects and their respective incidences:[13][78], Moclobemide has fewer interactions than irreversible MAOIs. It is sometimes prescribed to treat social phobia. Initially, Aurorix was also marketed by Roche in South Africa, but was withdrawn after its patent rights expired and Cipla Medpro's Depnil and Pharma Dynamic's Clorix became available at half the cost. The unchanged drug (less than 1%) as well as the metabolites are excreted renally (in urine). [8], Steady state concentrations are established after one week. In addition to, the body needs also water or fluids which play a vital role. These side effects are due to irreversible inhibition of MAO in the gut and vasomotor neurones. [65] As the pressor effect of moclobemide is so low, dietary restrictions are not necessary in people eating a normal diet, in contrast to irreversible MAOIs. [10][11], Reversible MAOIs such as moclobemide may have advantages in the treatment of depression associated with Alzheimer's disease due to its effect on noradrenaline. [102] Patients with mixed intoxications (e.g. [67][87] SNRIs, such as venlafaxine in combination with moclobemide have also been associated with serotonin syndrome. The bioavailability increases during the first week of therapy from 60% to 80% and more. [12], Moclobemide is relatively well tolerated. [60] Side effects of moclobemide are exceptionally low,[20] with insomnia, headache and dizziness being the most commonly reported side effects in the initial stages of therapy with moclobemide. Most MAOIs should also not be taken for 2 weeks before and at least 5 weeks after treatment with fluoxetine. Ribociclib: St. John's wort may decrease the serum concentration of ribociclib. This material is provided for educational purposes only and is not intended for medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. No reuptake inhibition of any of the neurotransmitters occurs. [8] With three times daily dosing the inhibition on MAO-A was relatively constant with moclobemide. [12] Behavioural toxicity or other impairments relating to everyday living does not occur with moclobemide, except that in doses of 400 mg or higher peripheral reaction time may be impaired. Moclobemide (sold as Amira, Aurorix,[7] Clobemix, Depnil and Manerix[8]) is a Reversible Inhibitor of Monoamine oxidase-A (RIMA) drug primarily used to treat depression and social anxiety. [12] In 2016 moclobemide was discontinued in Brazil for commercial reasons. [136], It is sold under many trade names worldwide. [83], Serotonin syndrome has been reported when moclobemide has been taken in combination with other serotonin enhancing drugs; however, due to moclobemide's reversible MAO inhibition, serotonin syndrome is significantly less likely to occur with moclobemide than with older irreversible MAOIs. [8] L-dihydroxyphenylalanine is also reduced. [56] Due to the side effect profile of moclobemide, it may be a better option for this sub group of people than other antidepressants. "Moclobemide: Therapeutic Use and Clinical Studies". [8] The reversible binding to MAO-A by moclobemide allows amines such as tyramine to displace moclobemide from MAO-A allowing its metabolism and removing the risk of a hypertensive crisis that occurs with irreversible MAO inhibition. Data sources include IBM Watson Micromedex (updated 1 Apr 2021), Cerner Multum™ (updated 5 Apr 2021), ASHP … [94] The potentiation of the pressor effect of tyramine by moclobemide is only one seventh to one tenth of that of irreversible MAOIs. [8] With long-term use of moclobemide, there is a significant down-regulation of B-adrenoceptors. [8] Blood plasma levels of trimipramine and maprotiline and possibly other tricyclic antidepressants increase when used in combination with moclobemide and may require dosage adjustments if the combination is used for treatment resistant depression. [68] Other side effects include nausea, insomnia, tremor and lightheadedness; orthostatic hypotension (dizziness upon standing) is uncommon even among the elderly. The search for its antidepressant qualities, based on anticholinergic tests, also proved negative and moclobemide was then suspected of being an antipsychotic before its specific and reversible MAO-A inhibition qualities were detected. %PDF-1.6 %���� [64], Unlike the irreversible MAOIs there is no evidence of liver toxicity with moclobemide. [8] The combined use of moclobemide and selegiline requires dietary restrictions as the combination can lead to increased sensitivity to the pressor effect of foods containing tyramine. [121] Less than 1 percent of the drug is excreted unchanged; 92 percent of the metabolised drug is excreted within the first 12 hours. moclobemide (Aurorix), which is a RIMA that reduces the activity of monoamine oxidase; tianeptine (Stablon), which enhances the reuptake of serotonin; Dosage & Treatment Plan. [69] Peripheral oedema has been associated with moclobemide. [14], People on irreversible MAOIs have to discontinue these antidepressants two weeks before general anesthesia, however, the use of moclobemide due to its reversible nature, would allow such patients to possibly continue antidepressant therapy. [124] About 44 percent of the drug is lost due to the first pass effect through the liver. [8] Moclobemide has also been demonstrated in a single dose research study to possess antinociceptive properties.[116]. [119] Despite its short half-life the pharmacodynamic action of a single dose persists for approximately 16 hours. You should use effective contraception to avoid becoming pregnant while you are being treated with Madopar. [68] Moclobemide also interacts with pethidine/meperidine,[80] and dextropropoxyphene. [111] Moclobemide suppresses the unstimulated release of certain proinflammatory cytokines which are believed to be involved in the pathophysiology of major depression and stimulates the release of anti-inflammatory cytokines. [95] In order to minimize this potentiation, postprandial administration (taken after meals) of moclobemide is recommended. [114] In humans, the n-oxide metabolites of moclobemide and moclobemide itself are the compounds that produce most of the inhibition of MAO-A; other metabolites are significantly less potent than the parent compound. [58], The incidence of adverse events is not correlated with age; however, adverse events occur more often in females than in males. [8] Single or repeated dosing with 100–300 mg of moclobemide leads to a reduction in deaminated metabolites of amines such as 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylethylglycol as well as 5-HIAA. you are breast-feeding or plan to breast-feed. Reversible MAOIs were developed in the hope that they would exert efficacy in depressive disorders but with less of the toxicity of the older irreversible compounds; moclobemide's discovery and marketing brought the renewed interest in MAOIs due to an absence of dangerous tyramine food interactions and potent antidepressant effects. The body is in need of nutrients for a constant functioning o the different body systems. [137], It is sold under many trade names worldwide including Apo-Moclob, Apo-Moclobemide, Auromid, Aurorix, Bei Su, Biorix, Depnil, Eutac, Hai Bei Lin, Langtian, Manerix, Mobemid, Moclamine, Moclo A, Moclobemid - 1 A Pharma, Moclobemid AL, Moclobemid HEXAL, Moclobemid ratiopharm, Moclobemida, Moclobemida Genedec, Moclobemida Teva, Moclobemide Actavis, Moclobemide Aurobindo, Moclobemide CF, Moclobemide Mylan, Moclobemide Sandoz, Moclobemide Sopharma, Moclobemide Teva, Moclobemid-neuraxpharm, Moclobemid-ratiopharm, Moclobeta, Moclod, moclodura, Moclostad, Mocrim, Moklar, Teva-Moclobemide, Tian Tai, Ya Zheng, and Zorix.[137]. There is also a temporary increase in prolactin during initial intake of 100–300 mg of moclobemide. [82] Avoid taking MAOIs (isocarboxazid, linezolid, methylene blue, moclobemide, phenelzine, procarbazine, rasagiline, selegiline, tranylcypromine) during treatment with fluoxetine. [67] Moclobemide has little effect on psychomotor functions. [119] It has been suggested that changes in dose should not be made with a gap of less than a week. It is not approved for use in the United States, but is approved in other Western countries such as Canada, the UK and Australia (TGA approved in December 2000). [67] Ephedrine in combination with moclobemide increases the risk of cardiovascular adverse effects. There is also some evidence of moclobemide possessing neuroprotective properties in rodent models. in widespread clinical use. [70], Most of the side effects are transient and disappear within 2 weeks of treatment. [8], Moclobemide increases levels of extracellular monoamines and decreases levels of their metabolites in rat brains; tolerance to these effects does not seem to occur with chronic use of moclobemide. [72] A paradoxical worsening of depression has been reported in some individuals in several studies,[73] and reports of suicide or suicidal ideation have been reported as a rare adverse effect of moclobemide.

The combination of moclobemide with prescription or over the counter sympathomimetic drugs is not recommended due to the potential of significant drug interactions. Bipolar disorder (although it seems less likely than imipramine to cause a manic switch, Chronic toxicity: In an 18-months-study in rats with 10 mg/kg no signs of chronic toxicity were noted, with 50 mg/kg and 250 mg/kg only a slight loss of weight, and with 250 mg/kg mildly elevated, Scientific Information on Aurorix (German), This page was last edited on 6 April 2021, at 22:53. [10][84][85] Serotonin syndrome has been reported when trazodone was abruptly replaced with moclobemide. The pharmacodynamic action encompasses activation, elevation of mood, and improvement of symptoms like dysphoria, fatigue, and difficulties in concentration. [110] The MAO inhibition of moclobemide lasts about 8–10 hours and wears off completely by 24 hours after dosing. A single 300 mg dose of moclobemide inhibits 80% of monoamine oxidase-A (MAO-A) and 30% of monoamine oxidase-B (MAO-B), blocking the decomposition of norepinephrine, serotonin and, to a lesser extent, dopamine. Withdrawal symptoms appear to be very rare with moclobemide compared to other antidepressants[citation needed]; a single report of relatively mild flu-like symptoms persisting for 7 days after rapid reduction of high dose moclobemide therapy has been reported in one patient. [8], In humans moclobemide is rapidly and almost completely absorbed and totally metabolised via the liver. Similarly, at least 14 days should be allowed after stopping citalopram before starting a MAOI or RIMA. [65] Moclobemide has been found to be superior to tricyclic and irreversible MAOI antidepressants in terms of side effects, as it does not cause anticholinergic, sedative or cardiovascular adverse effects[9] as well as not causing weight gain. [125] Age and renal function do not affect the pharmacokinetics of moclobemide. [77] Hypertension has been reported to occur very rarely with moclobemide therapy. 375 0 obj <> endobj [113], Moclobemide is chemically unrelated to irreversible MAOI antidepressants and only has a very weak pressor effect of orally administered tyramine. Avoid alcohol. [9][10][11] It is not approved for use in the United States,[12] but is approved in other Western countries such as Canada, the UK[11] and Australia (TGA approved in December 2000). The main degradation pathway of moclobemide is oxidation. [22][48] Menopausal flushing may also respond to moclobemide. [96], While moclobemide or the irreversible MAO-B selective inhibitor selegiline taken alone has very little pressor effect, and requires no dietary restriction, the combination of seligiline with moclobemide leads to a significant enhancement of the pressor effect and such a combination requires dietary restriction of foods containing high amounts of tyramine. [119] Peak plasma levels occur 0.3 to 2 hours after oral administration. Tolerance to the therapeutic effects has been reported in a small number of users of MAOIs including moclobemide. [74] Overall, antidepressants decrease the risk of suicide. [126] Food slows the absorption but does not affect the bioavailability of moclobemide. [16][128] In 1992 moclobemide was launched onto the world markets. Madopar should not be taken during pregnancy. [90] Moclobemide reduces the metabolism of dextromethorphan. [79] There is little increase in the effects of alcohol when combined with moclobemide[79] and, in fact, moclobemide causes a reduction in alcohol-related impairments. With regard to effectiveness in the treatment of depression, moclobemide was determined to be as effective as all major antidepressant drug classes. [131], When moclobemide was discovered in 1972 in Switzerland,[12] it was first hypothesized as being an antilipaemic or antibiotic, but the screenings were negative.

[8], Use in children is not recommended as there is insufficient data to assess their safety and efficacy in these patients. [8] There have been conflicting findings with regard to moclobemide altering cortisol levels and whether moclobemide increases growth hormone levels. [49] Moclobemide may also have benefit for some patients with Parkinson's Disease by extending and enhancing the effects of l-dopa. The elimination half-life is around 2 hours. In terms of tolerability, however, moclobemide was found to be comparable to the SSRIs and better tolerated than the TCAs and older MAOIs. [16], Tolerance does not seem to occur; research has found that moclobemide retains its beneficial therapeutic properties in depression for at least a year. [92], Irreversible MAOIs can cause unpleasant and occasionally dangerous side effects such as a hypertensive crises after intake of food or drink containing indirectly acting sympathomimetic amines such as tyramine.

There are a lot of foods which are good sources of all the nutrients needed by the body. [8][120] It is moderately bound to plasma proteins, especially albumin. rapid return of condition being treated and/or the appearance of withdrawal symptoms). • Avoid overripe, leftover/spoiled foods and foods past their “best before” or “use by” date. [63] Moclobemide, even at high doses of 600 mg, does not impair the ability to drive a motor vehicle. [12] There is some evidence that moclobemide on its own or in combination with other antidepressants such as SSRIs is also effective for treatment resistant depression and that the combination can be administered without the development of serotonin syndrome; however, further research is needed before such a combination can be recommended. [12] Subsequent research found that moclobemide is well tolerated in elderly patients[133] and far superior to tricyclic antidepressants in terms of side effects, tolerability and overdose. [132] It was first approved in the UK and Europe as the first reversible and selective inhibitor of MAO-A and is now approved in over 50 countries worldwide. [75] Moclobemide is believed to have only small proconvulsant effects;[76] however, rarely seizures may occur.

Increased hepatic enzymes without associated clinical sequelae. This is sometimes referred to as the 'cheese effect'. [6] The main metabolites are the N-oxide Ro 12-5637 formed via morpholine N-oxidation and lactam derivative Ro 12-8095 formed via morpholine C-oxidation;[122][123] active metabolites are found only in trace amounts. No significant rise in blood pressure occurs when moclobemide is combined with amines such as tyramine-containing foods or pressor amine drugs, unlike with the older irreversible and non-selective monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), which cause a severe rise in blood pressure with such combination. The drug is almost completely metabolized in the liver; it is a substrate of CYP2C19 and an inhibitor of CYP2C19, CYP2D6 and CYP1A2. [8] There is no cumulative effect of moclobemide centrally when taken long-term. [115], Moclobemide also has neuroprotective properties in its demonstrated anti-hypoxia or anti-ischemia effects; there is a possibility that moclobemide may possess similar neuro-rescuing properties, similar to selegiline, however, research is required to determine this. [91] Moclobemide may decrease metabolism of diazepam, omeprazole, proguanil, propranolol, and others due to inhibition of CYP2C19. [64] Of 18 people who overdosed on moclobemide during clinical trials, all recovered fully and moclobemide was judged to be safe for inpatient as well as outpatient use. [55] Cognitive impairments have been found to improve in people with dementia when depression is treated with moclobemide. Udo Bonnet. [4] Moclobemide has good penetration across the blood brain barrier with peak plasma levels within the central nervous system occurring 2 hours after administration. Moclobemide lacks anticholinergic effects and cognitive impairments can be improved by moclobemide. • Eat frozen and canned food immediately after opening or cooking. Platelet MAO is of the MAO-B and this is inhibited only to a small degree in humans; the inhibition is due to low levels of metabolites of moclobemide that have MAO-B inhibiting properties. h�bbd```b``��3@$S�dQ������l]0�L��ŗ�HF#0{?X|�� L��:`6X=C(��� $�9��e`5�� ҼH�w�e`bd`d�g`�2���q�'� � a [88] Cimetidine, causes a doubling of the blood plasma levels of moclobemide. A licensed physician should be consulted for diagnosis and treatment of any and all medical conditions. [100][101] Moclobemide, is preferred by doctors for patients who are at risk of suicide, due to moclobemide's low toxicity in overdose. [8], Moclobemide does not seem to prevent withdrawal symptoms from serotonin reuptake inhibitors. Uses This combination medication is used to temporarily treat symptoms caused by the common cold , flu , allergies , or other breathing illnesses (such as sinusitis , bronchitis ). meat, poultry, fish, eggs, and dairy products). 0 [13] It is produced by affiliates of the Hoffmann–La Roche pharmaceutical company. There is no need for dietary restrictions in contrast to people on irreversible MAOIs and apart from an important interaction with other serotonergic enhancing agents such as SSRIs and pethidine, there are few serious drug interactions and because of these benefits, moclobemide became regarded as a beneficial addition to medical 'prescribing arsenal'. Moclobemide (sold as Amira, Aurorix, Clobemix, Depnil and Manerix) is a Reversible Inhibitor of Monoamine oxidase-A (RIMA) drug primarily used to treat depression and social anxiety. 399 0 obj <>/Filter/FlateDecode/ID[]/Index[375 41]/Info 374 0 R/Length 115/Prev 291445/Root 376 0 R/Size 416/Type/XRef/W[1 3 1]>>stream [103] Withdrawal of moclobemide causes a rebound in REM sleep. [8], In healthy people moclobemide has a relatively small suppressing effect on REM sleep; in contrast, depressed people who have been treated with moclobemide, progressively show improved sleep over a 4-week period, with an increase in stage 2 non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. This long-term efficacy is equivalent to that seen with other antidepressant classes. [97] The combination of moclobemide and a reversible MAO-B inhibitor requires tyramine dietary restrictions.[98]. [14] MAOIs such as moclobemide are reported to have a relatively fast onset of action compared to other antidepressant drug classes,[15] and have good long-term tolerability in terms of side effects. [61] Many antidepressants have an adverse effect on sexual function; however, treatment with moclobemide has actually been found to improve sexual function. Treatment is largely symptomatic and should be aimed at maintenance of the vital functions. Drugs.com provides accurate and independent information on more than 24,000 prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines and natural products. ... moclobemide and selegiline. [14], Moclobemide is a benzamide,[12] derivative of morpholine,[105] which acts pharmacologically as a selective, reversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase-A (RIMA),[9] a type of monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI), and increases levels of norepinephrine (noradrenaline), dopamine, and especially serotonin[106][107] in neuronal cells as well as in synaptic vesicles; extracellular levels also increase which results in increased monoamine receptor stimulation and suppression of REM sleep, down regulation of Beta-3 adrenergic receptors. [135] It is the only reversible MAOI in use in clinical practice. Dosages for TCAs range from 10 – 100 mgs usually taken in the evening or at bedtime. [9][51] Follow-up studies show that ongoing use of antidepressants leads to continuing improvement in depression over time; and also have demonstrated that moclobemide retains its therapeutic efficacy as an antidepressant for at least a year. [89] The elimination of zolmitriptan is reduced by moclobemide and if the combination is used, a dosage reduction of zolmitriptan is recommended. [9] However, some rare cheeses that have a high tyramine level may possibly cause a pressor effect and require caution. MAO inhibition returns completely back to normal after 24 hours, which allows for changing to another antidepressant within 24 hours of the last dose taken of moclobemide. InChI=1S/C13H17ClN2O2/c14-12-3-1-11(2-4-12)13(17)15-5-6-16-7-9-18-10-8-16/h1-4H,5-10H2,(H,15,17). endstream endobj startxref Citalopram should not be used in combination with reversible MAOI (RIMA), moclobemide, or within 14 days of discontinuing treatment with a MAOI, and at least one day after discontinuing treatment with the reversible MAOI (RIMA), moclobemide. [85][134] Additionally moclobemide was found, unlike most other antidepressants on the market, to actually improve all aspects of sexual function. [8] However, the short disposition half life somewhat increases after repeated dosing; moclobemide has an intermediate elimination half life for systemic clearance and an intermediate volume of distribution. [8][64] The tolerability of moclobemide is similar in women and men and it is also well tolerated in the elderly. Phenelzine, sold under the brand name Nardil, among others, is a non-selective and irreversible monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) of the hydrazine class which is used as an antidepressant and anxiolytic.Along with tranylcypromine and isocarboxazid, phenelzine is one of the few non-selective and irreversible MAOIs still [when?] [127], Irreversible MAOI antidepressants were discovered accidentally in the 1950s but their popularity declined as their toxicity especially their dangerous food interactions became apparent and rival tricyclic antidepressants were discovered. Your doctor will discuss the risks and benefits of taking Madopar when breast-feeding. [99] Intoxications with moclobemide as single agent are usually mild; however, when combined with tricyclic or SSRI antidepressants the overdose is much more toxic and potentially fatal. It is taken by mou [9] Due to the lack of anticholinergic, cardiovascular, cognitive and psychomotor impairments moclobemide is advantageous in the elderly as well as those with cardiovascular disease. In the treatment of depression the antidepressant effect often becomes evident in the first week of therapy (earlier than typically noted with TCAs/SSRIs). The duration and quality of sleep may be improved. [57] Research has found evidence that moclobemide may be able to counter anti-cholinergic (Scopolamine) induced cognitive impairments thus making moclobemide a good choice in the depression in the elderly and those with dementia. You should wait at least 14 days after stopping ELEVA before starting any other medicines for depression or obsessive illnesses from a MAOI group, e.g. [104], Discontinuation of moclobemide is recommended to be done gradually to minimise side effects (e.g. Chemical compounda reversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase A (RIMA) drug primarily used to treat depression and social anxiety. h�b```������@��(����������� ����%N�*���h�~(飤��Op���Ho��f�kN���yGG�`�� �@����$ �e`q��b@, ��}�V���43� ����p�0u3�l:h�q���y٩{��`��ە`���1���ŃH� M��K�c �D� ��5@ [17], Similar to other MAOIs, reversible MAOIs such as moclobemide may also be effective in a range of other psychiatric disorders.
