I will agree that the abstract did not say explicitly, "atomoxetine can be combined safely with tranylcypromine". It is unfortunate that the full article is not available to scrutinize. The authors listed atomoxetine and bupropion as drugs included in their research of stimulants. If they had found an adverse event with either of these two drugs, I imagine they would have reported it. I am not sure of their rationale, but they grouped together atomoxetine and bupropion with drugs that are routinely described as being "stimulants". Both drugs, are, however, NE reuptake inhibitors (NRI) that are useful in treating ADD / ADHD and have properties in common with methylphenidate.

* As per the article:

Stimulant = amphetamine, dextroamphetamine, pemoline or methylphenidate, atomoxetine, bupropion

"No documented reports were found in the recent literature of hypertensive crises or fatalities occurring when the stimulant [amphetamine, dextroamphetamine, pemoline or methylphenidate, atomoxetine, bupropion] was cautiously added to the MAOI."

That's the way I interpreted the abstract.

Do you know of anyone who has taken atomoxetine and tranylcypromine together? Were there any fatal reactions?

Which tricyclic antidepressants are safe to take with MAO inhibitors?
