PRESCRIPTION DRUG
Rasagiline mesylate tablets are indicated for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Rasagiline is contraindicated for use with meperidine, tramadol, methadone, propoxyphene and MAO inhibitors (MAOIs), including other selective MAO-B inhibitors, because of risk of serotonin syndrome [See Warnings and Precautions (5.2)]. At least 14 days should elapse between discontinuation of rasagiline and initiation of treatment with these medications. Rasagiline is contraindicated for use with St. John’s wort and with cyclobenzaprine. Rasagiline is contraindicated for use with dextromethorphan because of risk of episode of psychosis or bizarre behavior. Pregnancy Category C There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of rasagiline in pregnant women. Rasagiline should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. In a combined mating/fertility and embryo-fetal development study in pregnant rats, no effect on embryo-fetal development was observed at oral doses
