🗑
Side Effects of Tricyclic antidepressants?   Due to block other receptors such as: Muscarinic receptors also-ANTICHOLINERGIC s/e:blurred vision,urine retention,constipation, A1:blocks the pressor response necessary to avoid Orthostatic Hypotentsion Ratio to toxic dose is very low: Death  
🗑
How SSRI's work?   BLock the reuptake of serotonin back into the presynaptic space, decrease destruction of transmitter and there is more serotonin at synapse for the postsynaptic cell.  
🗑
Key Points about SSRI's   -Do not block other receptors-less side effects -ONLY effective in mild or moderate depression -good choice for impulsive or suicidal bc no risk of lethal overdose -4-6 weeks before meds take effect,monitor suicide, maybe more energized but still have

🗑
Very important about MAO!   MAO inhibited in liver---build up of serum tyramine----triggers sudden release of norephineprine(potent vasoconstrictor)-----Hypertensive CRISIS:hypertension,tachycardia,doaphoresis,hyperpyrexia,cardiac arrythmias, tremulousness  
🗑
Foods that contain Tyramine to avoid while on MAOI's   aged cheese,aged meats:peperoni,summer sausage,all tap beers,overripe fruit,yogurt,peanuts,
