Does anyone know if metabolism/body processing of MAOIs (Parnate, Nardil) affect the liver? Should patients on long-term MAOI therapy get periodic liver function tests or is there no connection?

Hi!,
I believe there is a slim chance MAOIs can adversely affect the liver. I believe a Liver function every 6-12 months would suffice.
Take Care!
