Cimetidine increases the 
plasma levels of 
moclobemide by almost 40%. 
 It has been recommended that if 
moclobemide is added to treatment with 
cimetidine it should be started at the lowest therapeutic dose, and titrated as required. If 
cimetidine is added to treatment with moclobemide, the dosage of the 
moclobemide should initially be reduced by 50% and later adjusted as necessary.
