I had a kidney stone over the summer, and the dr. gave me Propoxyphene, which is generic for Darvocet.
I am on a MAOI, Imipram, I thought you couldn take darvocet if your on a MAOI (anit-depressant).

Right now I am having really bad stomach pains, and I want to take a Darvocet, but I dont know if its ok to take one. I mean the dr. gave it to me, it SHOULD be fine, but I thought you cant take it if your on a MAIO-Imipram!

So is it ok to take one?(darvocet)?
someone plz answer this ASAP!!
thanks a lot

Imipramine is a tricyclic antidepressant and I don't believe a MAOI, from what I've read tricyclic's and SSRI's are not MAOI's.
Your Imipramine itself is contraindicated with MAOI's, and doing a drug interaction check for it with Darvocet showed no unusal reaction.

Here is what the checker had to say about your combo"
