In reply to ANYONE HAVE A SLICE OF PIZZA WHILE ON MAO??, posted by ross on November 19, 2001, at 18:53:50
See:
Shulman KI, Walker SE. Refining the MAOI diet: tyramine content of pizzas and soy products. J Clin Psychiatry 1999 Mar;60(3):191-3.
Mozzarella cheese on pizza is generally fine. It doesn't need to be fresh mozzarella (a pretty flavorless substance) -- the stuff that most ordinary American pizza places use is not aged enough to be a problem. Even pepperoni seems to be all right (again this is on "ordinary" pizza rather than that gourmet s---).
I had many, many slices of pizza (including pepperoni pizza) while taking various MAOIs (Nardil, Parnate, Marplan, selegiline).
