Phillipa,

A RIMA is a reversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase A. Unlike irreversible MAO-A inhibitors, RIMAs do not stay bound to MAO-A for the life of the enzyme. Nardil, Parnate, and Marplan are all irreversible MAOIs (which inhibit both types of MAO). Moclobemide and Tririma are examples of RIMAs.

I hope this helps.
