| ==Drug Interactions==
| |
| | |
| MAO inhibitors should be avoided or used with extreme caution.
| |
| | |
| Concurrent use of [[tricyclic antidepressants]] may decrease the antihypertensive effect of reserpine.
| |
| | |
| Concurrent use of reserpine and direct-or-indirect acting sympathomimetics should be closely monitored. The action of direct-acting amines ([[epinephrine]], [[isoproterenol]], [[phenylephrine]], [[metaraminol]]) may be prolonged when given to patients taking reserpine. The action of indirect-acting amines ([[ephedrine]], [[tyramine]], [[amphetamines]]) is inhibited.
| |
| | |
| Reserpine should be used cautiously with digitalis and quinidine, since cardiac arrhythmias have occurred with rauwolfia preparations.
| |
| | |
| Concomitant use of reserpine with other [[antihypertensive ]]agents necessitates careful titration of dosage with each agent.<ref name="dailymed.nlm.nih.gov">{{Cite web | last = | first = | title = RESERPINE TABLET [EON LABS, INC.] | url = http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=3a4d74d7-2e63-4789-b50e-af17ced92462 | publisher = | date = | accessdate = 7 March 2014 }}</ref>
