Taper means gradual dose reduction, with lowering by increments every few days, usually over a period of 4 weeks, modified by
patient experience, drug, illness and other factors.
All switches from one antidepressant to another may result in serious complications. Switches must be undertaken cautiously and
under close observation.
The recommendations in this table are based on clinical experience, product information, empirical evidence and
recommendations from other guidelines. It may be necessary to modify the switching process depending on patient, illness and
interacting drug variables, determined by the patient’s clinical progress. In appropriate circumstances expert prescribers may use
less conservative switch strategies if justified by harm–benefit considerations arising from factors such as illness severity.
MAOI monoamine oxidase inhibitor SNRI serotonin noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor
TCA tricyclic antidepressant SSRI selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor
* A washout period of 2–5 half‑lives (most frequently 2–5 days) between cessation of previous drug and the introduction of a new drug is
the safest switching strategy from the point of view of drug interactions. In the indicated instances a washout period is not essential if
switching is carried out cautiously and under close observation, and clinical considerations such as illness severity support harm–benefit
considerations. Cautious cross taper (when the dose of the first drug is being reduced and the dose of the second drug is being increased
at the same time so that the patient is taking both antidepressants) may be used in the indicated instances if appropriate and safe.
(See Table 1 of original article for drug half‑lives.)
† Fluoxetine may still cause interactions 5 or 6 weeks after cessation (especially from higher doses) due to long half‑life of drug and
active metabolite.
‡ Fluoxetine is likely to continue to elevate TCA concentrations for several weeks.
§ Co‑prescription of the two antidepressants in this instance is not recommended.

stop MAOI, start agomelatine* taper and stop MAOI, then wait 14 days for washout before starting SNRI§ taper and stop MAOI, then wait 14 days for washout before starting above drug§ taper and stop MAOI, then wait 14 days for washout before starting reboxetine§ taper and stop MAOI, then wait 14 days for washout before starting above drug§ taper and stop MAOI, then wait 21 days for washout before starting clomipramine§ taper and stop MAOI, start moclobemide while maintaining MAOI dietary restrictions for 14 days§ taper and stop MAOI, wait 14 days for washout before starting other MAOI§ Taper means gradual dose reduction, with lowering by increments every few days, usually over a period of 4 weeks, modified by patient experience, drug, illness and other factors. All switches from one antidepressant to another may result in serious complications. Switches must be undertaken cautiously and under close observation. The recommendations in this table are based on clinical experience, product information, empirical evidence and recommendations from other guidelines. It may be necessary to modify the switching process depending on patient, illness and interacting drug variables, determined by the patient’s clinical progress. In appropriate circumstances expert prescribers may use less conservative switch strategies if justified by harm–benefit considerations arising from factors such as illness severity. MAOI monoamine oxidase inhibitor SNRI serotonin noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor TCA tricyclic antidepressant SSRI selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor * A washout period of 2–5 half‑lives (most frequently 2–5 days) between cessation of previous drug and the introduction of a new drug is the safest switching strategy from the point of view of drug interactions. In the indicated instances a washout period is not essential if switching is carried out cautiously and under close observation, and clinical considerations such as illness severity support harm–benefit considerations. Cautious cross taper (when the dose of the first drug is being reduced and the dose of the second drug is being increased at the same time so that the patient is taking both antidepressants) may be used in the indicated instances if appropriate and safe. (See Table 1 of original article for drug half‑lives.) † Fluoxetine may still cause interactions 5 or 6 weeks after cessation (especially from higher doses) due to long half‑life of drug and active metabolite. ‡ Fluoxetine is likely to continue to elevate TCA concentrations for several weeks. § Co‑prescription of the two antidepressants in this instance is not recommended.
