Bioactive Compound:Tyramine (Decarboxylated Tyrosine)
Biological Target:Presynaptic Vesicular Monoamine Transporter (VMAT)
Clinical Mechanism:

Under monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibition, ingested dietary tyramine escapes intestinal deamination, enters systemic circulation, and displaces massive catecholamine stores, triggering acute fatal hypertensive crises, intracranial hemorrhage, and cardiac arrest.

Patient Actionable Rule:Strict dietary tyramine restriction is required starting on the first day of MAOI therapy and continuing for 14 days after discontinuation to allow MAO enzyme regeneration.
