Toloxatone is a selective and reversible monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) inhibitor that prevents the oxidative deamination of serotonin and norepinephrine, increasing their synaptic concentrations and producing antidepressant effects. It is used for the treatment of depression and has the advantage over irreversible MAO inhibitors of lower risk for tyramine-induced hypertensive crisis (cheese effect) due to its reversibility and selectivity. Its RIMA (reversible inhibitor of MAO-A) profile allows competitive displacement by dietary tyramine, reducing the dietary restrictions required.
