Treatment of major depressive disorder without melancholia.

Efficacy in major depressive disorder with melancholia (endogenous features) not established.

MAO inhibitors appear particularly effective in treatment of major depressive disorder with atypical features, although other antidepressants (e.g., SSRIs) may initially be used because of their more favorable adverse effect profile.

Because of potential for serious adverse effects and necessity of dietary restrictions, MAO inhibitors (e.g., phenelzine, tranylcypromine) generally are not used as initial therapy for major depressive disorder, but are reserved for carefully selected patients who can be closely supervised and who have depression refractory to other antidepressants (e.g., SSRIs, SNRIs, TCAs) or in whom other therapies are contraindicated.
