Monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors (MAOIs) available at present can be classified into 3 types: (i) older, irreversible nonselective (first generation) agents such as phenelzine, tranylcypromine and isocarboxazid; (ii) irreversible, selective drugs (second generation) such as selegiline (deprenyl)...
Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) are mainly used in psychiatry for the treatment of depressive disorders and in neurology for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. While the classical, nonselective and nonreversible MAOIs, such as phenelzine and tranylcypromine, are characterised by the risk of...

Identification of hydrazine monoamine oxidase inhibitor drugs such as isoniazid, iproniazid, nialamide, isocarboxazid and iproclozide is made by electron impact mass spectrometry using the direct insertion technique. The molecular ion itself, although of low relative abundance, is found in the mass...
