Stop venlafaxine - Day 0: gradually reduce dosage of venlafaxine to a maximum of 75 mg/ day.
- Day 1: reduce a dosage of 75 mg/day to 37,5 mg/day.
Start maprotiline- Day 1: simultaneously start administration of maprotiline in a low dosage of 25-75 mg/day.
- Day 8: stop administration of venlafaxine and continue administration of maprotiline.
More information- “Start low, go slow” is not required, but caution with this switch is necessary.
- Venlafaxine is a weak inhibitor of CYP2D6, which metabolizes maprotiline.
- ↑ Switches are based on literature references on this page and expert opinions of the authors. The authors have used pharmacokinetic and receptor affinity properties to determine the switch schedules
