Selegiline is available as a skin (transdermal) patch
MAOIs (monoamine oxidase inhibitors) are a class of antidepressants that help treat depression symptoms
In larger doses (more than 20 mg/day), it loses its specificity for MAO-B and also inhibits MAO-A, which increases serotonin and norepinephrine levels in the brain
Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) are indicated for multiple psychiatric disorders, including treatment-resistant major depression
Unlike other antidepressants that increase 5HT and/or NE neurotransmission, non-selective MAOIs increase 5HT, NE, and DA; this broad effect on the neurotransmitters believed responsible for depression may explain the effectiveness of these MAOIs for a broad range of symptoms Selegiline (Emsam ), a newer MAOI, works by blocking monoamine oxidase B (MAOI-B)
Efforts to address safety issues have led to the development of more selective and reversible MAOIs, such as moclobemide
Selegiline (L-deprenyl) is a selective, irreversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) at the conventional dose (10 mg/day oral) that is used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease
, 2011)
Oral selegiline at lower dosages is primarily an MAO-B inhibitor and at higher dosages becomes an MAO-A inhibitor as well
, cheese reaction) have Selegiline is in a group of medications called monoamine oxidase type B (MAO-B) inhibitors
Newer MAOIs such as selegiline (typically used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease) and the reversible MAOI moclobemide provide a safer alternative and are now sometimes used as first-line therapy
MAO-B inhibitors may be useful as early monotherapy (a medication used alone) or as an add Parnate, Nardil, and Marplan are non-selective MAO inhibitors (i
Patches should be replaced every 24 hours
Patients who are taking either a classic monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) antidepressant (phenelzine, tranylcypromine, isocarboxazid), or high-dose (oral or transdermal) selegiline, must be instructed to follow a tyramine-restricted diet; this is necessary because such (often highly effective) treatments cause considerable reductions in the body's capacity to metabolize Still, an MAOI is a good option for some people
1, 2 The treatment of depression in patients with Parkinson disease should be individualized, with MAOIs can be involved in several significant drug-drug and drug-food interactions, and these interactions are one of the reasons that many clinicians are reluctant to use these agents
Common Emsam side effects may include: redness or itching where the patch is worn; headache; diarrhea, upset stomach, dry mouth; sleep problems ( insomnia ); rash; or
51 For those patients receiving MAOIs, morphine is considered the narcotic analgesic of choice
It also metabolizes into small amounts of l-amphetamines, which are lipophilic norepinephrine releasing agents, which could be a good thing in some circumstances
This dosage and application Also, Selegiline being an irreversible MAOB-I, is said to reduce amphetamine neurotoxicity, but also to possibly potentiate its effects
atypical depression that is refractory to other medications
Rare cases of hypertensive reactions associated with ingestion of tyramine-containing foods have been reported in patients taking the recommended daily dose of selegiline
[Van den Eynde et al, 2022] selegiline, deutetrabenazine
reduced efficacy compared with the classic MAOIs, selegiline may present with a better tolerability profile, and Selegiline inhibits MAO by acting as a 'suicide' substrate for the enzyme; that is, it is converted by MAO to an active moiety which combines irreversibly with the active site and/or the enzyme's essential FAD cofactor
After being sold for years as an anti-aging supplement and a treatment for Parkinson's disease, the FDA approved use of a Selegiline transdermal patch (Emsam) for treatment of depression in 2006
Efek terapi selegiline bekerja dengan cara menghambat MAO B, sehingga katabolisme dopamin dapat dihambat
It also inhibits the reuptake of dopamine at the presynaptic dopamine receptor
When applied to intact skin, EMSAM is designed to transdermally deliver selegiline over a 24-hour period
The selegiline transdermal system has been used to decrease the risk of a dietary tyramine-induced hypertensive crisis associated with these agents
Selegiline is an enzyme blocker (MAO inhibitor) that works by slowing the breakdown of certain natural Clorgyline is a selective inhibitor of MAO-A while selegiline (l-deprenyl) and rasagiline are relatively selective inhibitors of MAO-B
In addition, the flavin-containing monooxigenase is synthesizing deprenyl-N-oxide
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved these MAOIsto treat depression: 1
Using a patch may cause fewer side effects than MAOIstaken by
MAOIs and SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) are both classes of antidepressants, but they work in different ways
Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) are indicated for multiple psychiatric disorders, including treatment-resistant major depression
Transdermal selegiline is selective for MAOB at low doses and inhibits MAOA to a therapeutic degree at a dosage of at least 6 mg every 24 hours
Tranylcypromine, phenelzine and isocarboxazid are non-selective and equally inhibit both MAO-A and MAO-B
The stimulant medications have long been considered to be contraindicated in combination with MAOIs due to concerns of toxicity that include hypertensive crisis
isocarboxazid
Selegiline (Eldepryl) is an irreversible monoamine oxidase (MAO)-B inhibitor used at low doses for the adjunctive treatment of Parkinson's disease
Selegiline (brand names: Anipryl®, Eldepryl®, l-deprenyl, Selgian®, Zelapar®) is a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) used to treat signs due to cognitive dysfunction

Newer MAOIs such as selegiline (typically used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease) and the reversible MAOI moclobemide provide a safer alternative and are now sometimes used as first-line therapy
In treating Parkinsonism, selegiline is usually used in combination with levodopa
This medicine is a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI)
Two major recognitions were required for their introduction into this therapeutic field
MAOIs are among the oldest medications in the psychiatric pharmacopeia, with demonstrated efficacy in unipolar and bipolar depression, social anxiety disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, and panic disorder
It works by increasing the amount of dopamine (a natural substance that is needed to control movement) in the brain

Examples of MAOIs that are used for depression include: Isocarboxazid (Marplan) Phenelzine (Nardil) Selegiline (Emsam) Tranylcypromine (Parnate) Selegiline in patch form (Emsam) delivers the medication
reduced efficacy compared with the classic MAOIs, selegiline may present with a better tolerability profile, and Selegiline is a type of generic (unbranded) MAO-B inhibitor medication
