ACTIONS AND CLINICAL PHARMACOL
OGY
TEVA-MOCLOBEMIDE (moclobemide) is a short-acting, Reversible Inhibitor
of Monoamine
oxidase type A (RIMA). It is a benzamide derivative which inhibits the
deamination of serotonin,
noradrenaline and dopamine. This action leads to increased
concentrations of these neurotransmitters,
which may account for the antidepressant activity of moclobemide.
Monoamine oxidases are currently subclassified into two types, A and
B, which differ in their
substrate specificity. Moclobemide preferentially inhibits MAO-A; at a
300 mg dose, the inhibition
of MAO-A is approximately 80%, while that of MAO-B is approximately 20
- 30%. The estimated
MAO-A inhibition is short-lasting (maximum 24 hours) and reversible.
PHARMACOKINETICS
VOLUNTEERS
_General: _Following oral administration, moclobemide is 98% absorbed
from the gastrointestinal
tract. Due to hepatic first pass effect, absolute bioavailability is
approximately 55% after single
doses, but 90% after multiple doses. The apparent volume of
distribution is approximately 1.2 L/kg,
indicating extensive tissue distribution.
Moclobemide is extensively metabolized, largely via oxidative
reactions on the morpholine moiety
of the molecule. While 95% of the administered dose is excreted in the
urine, less than 1% of this is
in the unchanged form. Active metabolites recovered _in vitro _or in
animal experiments are present
only at very low concentrations in the systemic circulation in man.
Moclobemide is 50% bound to
plasma proteins, mainly to albumin. The presence of food reduces the
rate, but not the extent of
