N-methyltyramine and Treprostinil (Inh)

Here is the interaction we found between these two, with the evidence behind it.

Minor

ANTIHYPERTENSIVE DRUGS

Why this applies to Treprostinil (Inh)

Treprostinil (Inh) falls under ANTIHYPERTENSIVE DRUGS — the group N-methyltyramine interacts with.

In animal research, N-methyltyramine increased blood pressure. This has not been shown in humans. Theoretically, concomitant use of N-methyltyramine and antihypertensive drugs might reduce the effects of antihypertensive drugs.
Some antihypertensive drugs include captopril (Capoten), enalapril (Vasotec), losartan (Cozaar), valsartan (Diovan), diltiazem (Cardizem), Amlodipine (Norvasc), hydrochlorothiazide (HydroDiuril), furosemide (Lasix), and many others.
Severity Minor Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Interaction has been documented in animal or in lab research, or the interaction has been documented in humans but is limited to case reports or conflicting clinical research exists.

Dr. Brian Staiger, PharmD, BCPS
Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Here's the simple version. Inhaled treprostinil (Tyvaso) works by relaxing and widening the blood vessels in your lungs to ease the high pressure that makes you short of breath and tired. N-methyltyramine, found in some pre-workout and weight-loss products, may act as a mild stimulant that nudges your body's "fight or flight" system and could gently raise blood pressure. Because it pushes in the opposite direction, in theory it might chip away at some of the benefit you get from your treprostinil.

I want to be honest though: this is based only on animal and lab data, not human studies, so it's a weak, theoretical concern rated as minor. Still, since treprostinil is treating a serious lung and heart condition, please run any supplement like this by your pharmacist or doctor first.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Treprostinil (Inh) page

“Inhaled treprostinil (Tyvaso) relaxes blood vessels in the lungs to treat pulmonary hypertension, and it also blunts platelet clotting, which is why this list of 275 ingredients warrants real vigilance rather than a shrug. Two themes cover almost everything.”

About N-methyltyramine

What is N-methyltyramine?

  • Weight loss and fat burning
  • Energy and pre-workout supplements
  • Sports performance
  • Appetite control

N-methyltyramine is a natural compound related to tyramine that is found in bitter orange, barley, and other plants, and it is often added to weight-loss and pre-workout supplements. Solid human research on its safety and effectiveness is very limited, and because it may stimulate the body like other amines, people with heart problems or high blood pressure should be especially careful. Talk to a pharmacist or doctor before using any product that contains it.

About Treprostinil Oral Inhalation

What Is Treprostinil Oral Inhalation Used For?

Brand name: Tyvaso

Treprostinil oral inhalation is used to treat two serious lung conditions that raise pressure in the blood vessels of the lungs. It helps improve how much physical activity you can do.

Tyvaso inhalation solution and Tyvaso DPI are both indicated to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH; WHO Group 1) and pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD; WHO Group 3). Clinical studies establishing effectiveness in PAH primarily included patients with moderate symptoms (NYHA Class III) whose PAH was idiopathic, heritable, or related to connective tissue disease. Studies in PH-ILD primarily included patients with idiopathic interstitial pneumonia, combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema, or connective tissue disease-related lung disease.
