In reply to Re: Anyone had food poisoning while on an MAOI?, posted by Dan Perkins on January 8, 2005, at 21:56:50
> I have asked this question b/f on this and other message boards. The closest I have gotten to an affirmative answer were posts from people who had read of or heard of other people getting reactions from such and such a food. Never has anyone responded who actually had a food-induced hypertensive crisis while on an MAOI. They just don't seeem to happen very often.
>I think doctors exaggerate the potential for food interactions with maoi's. I've taken parnate and nardil and eaten everything you're not supposed to(except maybe broiled liver) and i've never felt sick. I think the real danger is in mixing medications with maois. I've heard of people who have been in car accidents and given sedatives and went into comas because the ambulance responders didn't know about the maoi.
