Toloxatone (MD 69276) is a reversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase A (MAOA).

The maximum increase in systolic blood pressure produced by four single oral doses of tyramine administered during a meal and ranging from 100 mg to 800 mg was compared during repeated (3 to 5 days) administration of placebo, 200 mg toloxatone three times a day and 400 mg toloxatone three times a day in a single-blind, three-period crossover study. Toloxatone by itself had no significant influence on blood pressure. During administration of toloxatone, no significant increase in tyramine-induced increase in systolic blood pressure was observed for tyramine doses of 200 mg or less that are consistently higher than those associated with normal food intake [2].
