Isocarboxazid
This monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) antidepressant works by blocking MAO enzymes that break down neurotransmitters including serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine, increasing their availability in the brain. It is used for depression that has not responded to other antidepressants. Strict dietary restrictions avoiding tyramine-rich foods are necessary to prevent dangerous hypertensive crises.
