ED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU TAKE| |
|
PARNATE TABLETS |
DO NOT take Parnate Tablets if:
• you are allergic to tranylcypromine or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6)
• you are taking other MAOIs or have taken other MAOIs within the last two weeks
• you have taken clomipramine or imipramine within the last three weeks or are planning to take them within the next three weeks
• you suffer from porphyria (which is an inherited disease affecting the nervous system and skin)
• you have severe heart disease or any disease of the blood vessels of the brain
• you have pheochromocytoma which is a tumour of the adrenal glands (glands near the kidneys) causing high blood pressure
• you have been diagnosed with an overactive thyroid gland (a gland in the neck)
• you have known liver damage or a disorder affecting the blood cells (your doctor will know)
• you are taking any of the medicines listed under 'Do not take' in the “Other Medicines and Parnate Tablets” section of this leaflet
• please tell your doctor if any of the above apply to you, and do not take Parnate Tablets.
Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking this medicine if you:
• are elderly
• have a mild heart problem which restricts your activity
• suffer from seizures/fits (epilepsy)
• are due to have surgery in the next few weeks
• have a history of dependence on drugs or alcohol.
Even though some of the above may be obvious, it is important that your doctor is aware if any of them apply to you.
Thoughts of suicide and worsening of your depression or anxiety disorder:
If you are depressed and/or have anxiety disorders, you can sometimes have thoughts of harming or killing yourself (see section 4 'Possible side effects'). These may be increased when first starting antidepressants, since these medicines all take time to work, usually about two weeks but sometimes longer.
You may be more likely to think like this if you:
• have previously had thoughts about killing or harming yourself
• are a young adult. Information from clinical trials has shown an increased risk of suicidal behaviour in adults aged less than 25 years with psychiatric conditions who were treated with an antidepressant.
If you have thoughts of harming or killing yourself, at any time, contact your doctor or go to a hospital straight away. You may find it helpful to tell a relative or close friend that you are depressed or have an anxiety disorder, and ask them to read this leaflet. You might ask them to tell you if they think your depression or anxiety is getting worse, or if they are worried about changes in your behaviour.
Children and adolescents
Parnate Tablets are not recommended for children under 18 years old (see section 3 'Use in children and adolescents').
Other medicines and Parnate Tablets:
Please tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicines, including medicines obtained without a prescription.
DO NOT take Parnate Tablets with the following medicines:
• medicines called sympathomimetic agents - these include ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, adrenaline and noradrenaline (these may be found in medicines used to treat heart problems and asthma as well as some decongestants and cough/cold remedies)
• bupropion, a medicine to help you stop smoking
• medicines to control appetite, e.g. amphetamine and fenfluramine
• medicines that treat Parkinson's disease, e.g. levodopa
• dopamine, a medicine used to treat certain heart conditions
• the pain killers pethidine and nefopam
• general anaesthetics such as propofol, which are used in surgery
• other medicines used to treat depression (e.g. amitriptyline, imipramine, tryptophan)
• buspirone, used to treat anxiety.
Parnate Tablets must be taken with caution if you are taking the following medicines:
• other MAOIs such as isocarboxazid
• strong pain killers e.g. codeine
• medicines to treat seizures/fits, e.g. carbamazepine
• barbiturates used to treat severe sleeping problems, e.g. amylobarbitone
• SSRIs such as fluoxetine or sertraline (for depression). Taking your medicine with these products may cause the following serious side effects: sweating, extreme agitation, confusion, muscle stiffness
• medicines for high blood pressure (e.g. guanethidine, reserpine, methyldopa)
• medicines to treat diabetes (e.g. insulin, metformin)
• antihistamines used to treat allergies, e.g. cetirizine. Consult your doctor before you take Parnate Tablets if you are taking or might be taking any of these.
Parnate Tablets with food, drink and alcohol
You should NOT take alcohol (especially red wine) whilst you are taking Parnate Tablets. This includes non-alcoholic beer or larger.
Parnate Tablets stops the breakdown of a substance called tyramine which is found in large amounts of certain foods. If this substance is not broken down, it can cause very high blood pressure. So, whilst you are taking Parnate Tablets, you should avoid the following foods:

Your doctor will decide whether you should ablactate (gradually reduce) or stop therapy with Parnate Tablets. Effects of Parnate Tablets on fertility are unknown.

Parnate Tablets may make you feel drowsy or dizzy or affect your concentration. You should not drive or use machines when you first start to take this medicine until you are certain that you are not getting these side effects. If in any doubt, speak to your doctor before you drive or use machines.

If you stop taking Parnate Tablets
Continue to take Parnate Tablets even if you no longer feel ill. DO NOT STOP taking this medicine without talking with your doctor first, especially if you have taken large doses for a long time.

If you have any further questions on the use of this medicine, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
4. POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS
Like all medicines, Parnate Tablets can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.
If you eat foods or take medicines which interact with the active ingredient tranylcypromine, you may get very high blood pressure (a hypertensive crisis).
If you notice any of the following symptoms please see your doctor immediately:
• frequent or throbbing headaches, painful or stiff neck, changes in heart rate, pain in the middle of the chest, feeling sick or being sick, sweating, paleness, or flushing of the skin and enlarged pupils which may make bright sunlight uncomfortable. Although very rare, there may be muscle weakness or paralysis (loss of movement) down one side of the body and there have been a few deaths from hypertensive crisis
• thoughts of suicide and suicidal behaviour early on in treatment or shortly after stopping treatment (see section 2 'Thoughts of suicide and worsening of your depression or anxiety disorder').
Sometimes patients feel anxious whilst taking this medicine and rarely some patients will become very agitated or irritable. Your doctor may reduce your dose if this happens.
Some patients get low blood pressure and may feel dizzy on standing up. If this continues for a long time, your doctor may stop your medicine.
Other side effects which may occur include:
• difficulty in sleeping, mild headache, sleepiness, weakness, dizziness, fast heart beat (palpitations), restlessness, dry mouth, blurred vision, feeling sick, water retention or swelling, weight gain, increased appetite, rash and difficulty in passing water.
Rarely, some patients experience soreness in the hands and feet, which may be a sign of inflamed nerves.
Rarely, some patients may find the relief of their depression decreases with time and higher doses of the active ingredient, tranylcypromine, are needed to get the same effect.
Very rarely, liver problems (symptoms include yellowing of the skin and the whites of the eyes), bruising and changes in blood have been reported. Therefore, if you get a bad sore throat or high fever or become very tired and pale or notice bruises and nose bleeds, tell your doctor.
