In reply to MAOI and Soy Milk, posted by MysteryMonk on June 12, 2003, at 16:40:54
You can have a mild reaction to tyramine while on an MAOI. The reaction is dependent on the amount of tyramine ingested. Mild reactions usually occur with tyramine ingestion in the range of 6-8mg. More serious reactions occur when >10mg is consumed. From what I read, the dosage of the MAOI seems relatively unimportant.
Soy milk is unrestricted on 5 diet lists that I have and mentioned as something that should be avoided on 1 list. Soy milk is something that you should probably avoid. I had a reaction once to soy protein powder when I was on Nardil.
Also, if you are on parnate you can experience blood pressure increases for up to 2 hours after taking it.Paul
