Hello helpful people. I have been suffering with some stomach issues. Finally got to the GI doctor and now have to wait 3 months to be scoped. (Yes, I live in the US.)
I was prescribed hycoscyamine. I can see on the Hyoscyamine info that I needed to tell the doc about my MAOI, which I did. But no EmSam pages mention this drug specifically. Then again, I can't find any complete list of interactions.
Anyone know about this one? Thanks!

You might visit drugs.com if you want to check on drug interactions. I checked for interactions between hyoscyamine and Emsam and it didn't report any interactions.
I take Parnate, another MAOi, and drugs.com lists there being a "minor" interaction between hyoscyamine and Parnate. I also take hyoscyamine 0.125mg three times per day and I have not ever had any issues.
The possible interaction would be, I would guess, to cause CNS depression, i.e. hypotension.

Thanks! I really appreciate double-checking with people here who know first-hand.
I hope the hycosamine works for you. I'm about to try it.
