title: Pargyline-induced mania in primary affective disorder: case report.
abstract: A case is described of a 47-year-old man who developed a manic psychosis while receiving pargyline treatment for concurrent depression and hypertension. The pharmacologic actions of pargyline are discussed with regard to its partial selectivity for MAO-B and presumed action in dopamine systems, and clinicians are alerted to this uncommon drug reaction.
