		Gene Name		MAOB
		Uniprot ID		AOFB_HUMAN
		KEGG Pathway		hsa:4129
		Protein Family		Flavin monoamine oxidase family
		Protein Function		Catalyzes the oxidative deamination of primary and some secondary amines such as neurotransmitters, and exogenous amines including the tertiary amine, neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP), with concomitant reduction of oxygen to hydrogen peroxide and participates in the metabolism of neuroactive and vasoactive amines in the central nervous system and peripheral tissues (PubMed:11134050, PubMed:8665924, PubMed:8316221, PubMed:11049757, PubMed:20493079). Preferentially degrades benzylamine and phenylethylamine (PubMed:11134050, PubMed:8665924, PubMed:8316221, PubMed:11049757, PubMed:20493079). Click to Show/Hide
Mechanism Description		Antagonize the effect of Guanadrel when combined with Safinamide

Recommended Action
Management		While clinical data are lacking, guanadrel and guanethidine should preferably not be used with MAOIs or other agents that possess MAOI activity (e.g., furazolidone, linezolid, methylene blue, procarbazine). The manufacturer of phenelzine considers the combination contraindicated. At least 7 to 14 days should elapse between discontinuation of MAOI therapy and initiation of treatment with guanadrel or guanethidine. If they have been used together, clinicians should be aware that significant hypotension may occur following withdrawal of MAOI therapy.
