I am looking for the answer to this question in order to decide if I should take an over the counter med which has a warning - not to take it if I am taking a prescription containing "moi."
Loratadine is an over-the-counter allergy medication. It has nothing to do with anti-depressants, which is what an MAOI is (it stands for Mono-Amine-Oxidase Inhibitor). If you were taking an MAOI, your doctor would have told you because you would have to eat a special diet.

As far as I understand, yes you can. You cannot take clotting medications or MAOI's whilst taking Zoloft. "Do not take Zoloft together with pimozide (Orap), or a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) such as isocarboxazid (Marplan), phenelzine (Nardil), rasagiline (Azilect), selegiline (Eldepryl, Emsam), or tranylcypromine (Parnate). You must wait at least 14 days after stopping an MAOI before you can take Zoloft. After you stop taking Zoloft, you must wait at least 14 days before you start taking an MAOI."** **http://www.drugs.com/zoloft.html
Simvastatin is not an MAOI.
No, it is not a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI).
MAOI is an antidepressive drug.
Cymbalta is not a MAOI. It is a selective serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI).
Albuterol is not an MAOI
does prednisone contain an MAOI
Shabu is another name for methamphetamine. Diane 35 is a birth control pill containing the progestin cyproterone acetate and 35 micrograms of ethinylestradiol. There seem to be no risk of interactions between methamphetamine and any synthetic female hormones. You should avoid taking MAOI drugs with methamphetamine, and avoid smoking when taking birth control pills or other oral medications which contain some form of estrogen.
An maoi refers to "monoamine oxidase inhibitors," which is a kind of antidepressant that affects serotonin and dopamine levels in the brain. Topamax is a medication that alleviates migraine headaches. Topamax is not an maoi.
