In reply to MOCLOBEMIDE with TRILEPTAL ?? Dr. BOB HELP, posted by MARKED on January 17, 2004, at 14:34:08
I researched this possibility just a month ago. There's a "theoretical" contraindiction for the two based on the observation that Tegretol
(and thus Trileptal) is structurally very similar to the TCAs, which in combination with traditional older MAOIs has meant trouble (hypertensive crisis I suspect). The British Formulary mentions this. My psydoc is pretty liberal but still didn't feel comfortable with this combo. So if you do try it, take it very easy. Good Luck!
