supplement:

Melatonin

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

In the median eminence of intact hamsters, the accumulation of DA after pargyline was reduced to 22% of controls by melatonin injections; in ovariectomized hamsters, the accumulation of DA was reduced to 9% of controls by melatonin injections.
The accumulation of norepinephrine after pargyline was significantly reduced by melatonin administration only in ovariectomized hamsters.
