Q

MAOI MOA

A

mitochondrial enzyme - MAO - metabolize monoamines to inactive metabolites

MAO-A - NE and 5-HT

metabolized by MAO-A and MAO-B

with MAOI - can get accumulation - not goodselective irreversible MAO-B inhibitor (low dose

and nonselective MAO-A/B inhibitor - high dose (refractory depression)
