Paroxetine and Selegiline interaction

BRISDELLE is contraindicated in patients: Taking, or within 14 days of stopping, MAOIs (including the MAOIs linezolid and intravenous methylene blue) because of an increased risk of serotonin syndrome [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 ), Drug Interaction ( 7 )] .

Concurrent use with monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOI) or use within 14 days of MAOI use ( 2.2 , 4.1 , 5.2 , 7.3 ) Use with thioridazine ( 4.2 , 7.1 )

Serotonin Syndrome: BRISDELLE can cause serotonin syndrome with increased risk when co-administered with other serotonergic agents, but also when taken alone.

The concomitant use of BRISDELLE with MAOIs is contraindicated.

If concomitant use of BRISDELLE with other serotonergic drugs (besides MAOIs) is clinically warranted, consider the increased risk of serotonin syndrome and carefully observe the patient, particularly during BRISDELLE initiation [see Contraindications ( 4.1 )

• May cause serotonin syndrome when used with antidepressants (5.2)

Serotonin Syndrome Serotonin syndrome and hyperpyrexia have been reported with the combined treatment of an antidepressant (e.g., selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors-SSRIs, serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors-SNRIs, tricyclic antidepressants, tetracyclic antidepressants, triazolopyridine antidepressants) and a non-selective MAOI (e.g., phenelzine,…

In the post-marketing period, fatal and non-fatal cases of serotonin syndrome have been reported in patients treated with antidepressants concomitantly with ZELAPAR [see Contraindications (4) and Drug Interactions ( 7.1 , 7.2 , 7.3 )] .

Because the mechanisms responsible for these reactions are not fully understood, avoid the combination of ZELAPAR with any antidepressant.

…allow concomitant use of any selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitor (e.g., fluoxetine-Prozac, fluvoxamine-Luvox, paroxetine-Paxil, sertraline, venlafaxine-Effexor, or nefazodone-Serzone) or any non-selective serotonin reuptake inhibiting antidepressant drug (except when taken at a low dose and only at night for the purpose of effective sleep) with ZELAPAR.
