Nardil Interactions Explained
The following sections explain in detail the potentially negative interactions that can occur when
Nardil is combined with any of the drugs listed above.
Apraclonidine
Atomoxetine
Strattera and Nardil should not be taken together or within two weeks of each other, due to the risks of dangerous side effects.
Barbiturates
Nardil can increase certain side effects of barbiturates (such as drowsiness). Your healthcare provider may need to decrease your barbiturate dose to prevent this interaction from occurring.
Blood Pressure Medications
Brimonidine
You should not use
brimonidine eye drops while taking Nardil, due to the risk of dangerously high blood pressure.
Bupropion

bupropion while taking Nardil (or even if you have taken Nardil within the past 14 days), due to the risk of dangerous side effects.
Caffeine
You should use caffeine sparingly while taking Nardil, due to the risk of dangerously high blood pressure. Be aware that many foods and medicines (such as "stay-awake" products and
migraine products) contain caffeine.
Carbamazepine
Taking
carbamazepine and Nardil together can increase your risk of side effects. Special care should be taken when using these medications in combination or within 10 days of each other.
