Hi Diana,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
As per the documentations available, taking MAO inhibitors (isocarboxazid, linezolid) with this medication may cause a serious (possibly fatal) drug interaction.
However, there are no reported interaction between cocaine and abortion pills.
However, it would be ideal for you to avoid use of cocaine till the abortion process is complete. Also, make sure that you undergo abortion using pills under medical supervision and do the necessary follow-up after the process is complete.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
I find this answer helpful
