Guest guest Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 I have seen this " serotonin syndrome " mentioned a couple of times now int the past couple of days. I looked it up because one time someone said it in regards to me just beginning the new drug Savella. I am not sure I understand what it is or how to be on guard for the symptoms. Please will someone explain it to me? My doctor never ever mentioned it so maybe he has never heard of it either. I know it is my job to be educated about everything I take. Thank you in advance for someone taking the time to explain it to me. Becky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Becky, I have not had it but reading these articles, I found out that Zofran, what I take for nausea, should be watched with the serotonin medications. I know a medication will state if you need to watch for the syndrome. I believe it is something that happens you will know it. http://www.cnn.com/HEALTH/library/serotonin-syndrome/DS00860.html Bennie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
