Pharmacodynamics

Pargyline is a monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) inhibitor with antihypertensive properties. Patients taking pargyline must avoid concurrent consumption of tyramine-containing foods such as bleu cheese and beer, as this can lead to a hypertensive crisis.

Mechanism of action

MAOIs act by inhibiting the activity of monoamine oxidase, thus preventing the breakdown of monoamine neurotransmitters and thereby increasing their availability. There are two isoforms of monoamine oxidase, MAO-A and MAO-B. MAO-A preferentially deaminates serotonin, melatonin, epinephrine and norepinephrine. MAO-B preferentially deaminates phenylethylamine and trace amines. Pargyline functions by inhibiting the metabolism of catecholamines and tyramine within presynaptic nerve terminals. Catecholamines cause general physiological changes that prepare the body for physical activity (fight-or-flight response). Some typical effects are increases in heart rate, blood pressure, blood glucose levels, and a general reaction of the sympathetic nervous system.

Interactions

Drug Interactions
This information should not be interpreted without the help of a healthcare provider. If you believe you are experiencing an interaction, contact a healthcare provider immediately. The absence of an interaction does not necessarily mean no interactions exist.
DrugInteraction
1,2-BenzodiazepineThe risk or severity of CNS depression can be increased when Pargyline is combined with 1,2-Benzodiazepine.
AbaloparatidePargyline may increase the orthostatic hypotensive activities of Abaloparatide.
AbciximabThe risk or severity of bleeding and hemorrhage can be increased when Pargyline is combined with Abciximab.
AcarbosePargyline may increase the hypoglycemic activities of Acarbose.
AcebutololPargyline may increase the hypotensive activities of Acebutolol.
Food Interactions
  • Avoid tyramine-containing foods and supplements. Foods that contain tyramine include yogurt, aged cheese, ripe bananas, wine, and sourdough bread.
