A Mono-Amine Oxidase Inhibitor is a rather old-fashioned antidepressant. Neither Focalin nor Risperdal is an antidepressant at all, so you are totally safe. If you were taking an MAOI your doctor would have you on a strict diet where you have to cut out foods like pepperoni, aged cheese, and wines. Focalin is used to treat ADHD. Risperdal is used to treat psychotic symptoms associated with Bipolar disorder and schizophrenia
THANK YOU SO MUCH. I ALWAYS DO THE RESEARCH WHENEVER MY SON'S DOCTOR WANTS TO CHANGE HIS MEDS AND I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS ANSWER FOR HOURS NOW. WHAT DRUGS ARE MAOI'S? I CANT FIND ANYTHING ON THE NET ANSWERING THIS AS MY SON CANNOT HAVE MAOI'S WITH HIS CURRENT MEDS?

Yes, you can take NyQuill while taking Risperdal. The drugs to avoid while taking Risperdal are: * Risperdal may decrease the effects of levodopa and other dopamine agonists * Carbamazepine and clozapine may reduce the effect of Risperdal * Risperdal increases the effects of blood-pressure lowering drugs and central nervous system (CNS) depressants
No. Cheese and meat are both bad for people on MAOI.
