The SSRI's definitely affect the liver. That is the main reason I quit them. I

was tested for vitamin and mineral deficiencies, which included a liver enzyme

blood test. My enzyme levels were elevated 6x normal. They should be in the

40-50 range and they were in the 260-290 range. The doctor made me come off

them since they could find no other reason for the elevation. I weened off over

5 1/2 mos. and my liver enzymes returned to normal about 2-3 mos. after taking

my last pill. Unfortunately, that is also when the PSSD started.
