Mucuna + Xadago - safe to take together?

Hello -- apologies for the cross posting as I will also be listing this on Neurotalk.

Does anyone know whether it is safe to take mucuna powder and Xadago at the same time? Or if not at the exact same moment, to be on both substances at the same time (eg taking Xadago once per day and taking mucuna a few times per day?)

My mother supplements her Sinemet with mucuna. Her understanding is that mucuna and Azilect are not to be mixed. Since Xadago and Azilect are both MAO-B inhibitors, we are wondering if the same caution would be extended to using Xadago and mucuna at the same time.

Many thanks in advance for any insights you can share!

Xadago and Macuna are fine together. I take xadago with sinemet which is the same thing and it works very well
