Yes: Yes, there are potential dangers, namely deprenyl could cause marked elevations in the concentration of pea, which could cause a sudden spike in blood pressure, causing a potential stroke/cva. If you are already taking deprenyl, then i would be very careful about any supplements, and clear it with your neurologist before taking it to avoid negative drug interactions.
