Heres an issue i see with the two,and i suppose it would be a problem with many drugs as well.
Maois inhibit many things,hence the danger tyramine?So would it not be correct to say you cant always apply the STANDERD half life of a drug to cocomitment use with MAOIS?Since the Maoi could very well be prolonging its removal?
I ask this because along with other sleep drugs,i took ambien the other night,i was running low so i did not have the dose i usualy take,and well sleep drugs period are never a guranentee to work even if they do 99.9 percent,there might always be that night where ur nust agigtated or whatever else have u?
Anway back to the point,as morning came up,having slept maybe an hour here or there,i felt extremly maniac,like i could feel the ambien in me.
I felt the ambien in me the entire day,i felt like my body was asleep but my mind wouldent?If this theory is true at all,maybe this is another serious concern with maois,to understand that its not just tyramine interactions to becareful of ,but to be weary that any standerd drug might not not have its normal effects on u .
Any ideas if this makes sense?
