मोडाफिनिल और फेनेलज़िन का इंटरैक्शन

The potentiation of sympathomimetic substances and related compounds by MAO inhibitors may result in hypertensive crises (see WARNINGS ).

Therefore, patients being treated with phenelzine sulfate should not take sympathomimetic drugs (including amphetamines, cocaine, methylphenidate, dopamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine) or related compounds (including methyldopa, L-dopa, L-tryptophan, L-tyrosine, and phenylalanine).

Also, they should not be given cocaine or local anesthesia containing sympathomimetic vasoconstrictors.

In individuals deficient in the CYP2D6 enzyme, the levels of CYP2D6 substrates which have ancillary routes of elimination through CYP2C19, such as tricyclic antidepressants and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, may be increased by co-administration of PROVIGIL.

Monoamine Oxidase (MAO) Inhibitors Caution should be used when concomitantly administering MAO inhibitors and PROVIGIL.
