Guest guest Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Hi All,We are 6 months into NIDS (valtrex,diflucan, celexa(changed a wk ago from paxil), tenex). My kid was having aggression issues for the last 2-3 weeks and we changed SSRI to celexa.It has only been a week on celexa but his aggressivesness hasn't changed.Seems more hyper,stimmy and increase(2-3) in bowel mov .His eye corner are red. Had diarrhea last week.For the last 2-3 days his crazy hunger has reduced.Is this a side effect of celexa or are they late die off reaction of valtrex/ketoconazole? My son did not have a die off reaction with valtrex/ketoconzole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Sounds like it could be yeast but please keep in mind that SSRI's are not good for some people with methylation/histamine issues...it cant get pretty nasty after a while.

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 What other meds/supps is he on? Some symptoms you describe sound like serotonin syndrome which can cause increased agitation, diarrhea or frequent biwel movements, hallucinations, increased heart rate and so on. It is usually caused by taking SSRIs and other meds potentiating the serotonin effect. Discuss with your doc if there are any drug interactions from his current med list. is > > Hi All, > We are 6 months into NIDS (valtrex,diflucan, celexa(changed a wk ago from paxil), tenex). > > My kid was having aggression issues for the last 2-3 weeks and we changed SSRI to celexa. > It has only been a week on celexa but his aggressivesness hasn't changed. > Seems more hyper,stimmy and increase(2-3) in bowel mov . > His eye corner are red.
