The MAO Handbook

Despite the fact that MAO inhibitors (MAOIs) can be highly effective therapeutic agents for depression and some anxiety disorders, they tend to be underutilized in clinical practice. Because these drugs are no longer emphasized in medical education, there is a great deal of misinformation and mythology about their dietary and drug interactions. This book is intended to serve as a guide for clinicians who are not particularly familiar with MAO inhibitors; its aim is to help these clinicians competently integrate these agents into clinical practice when appropriate.
