> If you decide you are fed up with side effects of effexor, I'd definitely give the 5htp a shot. I take way less than JohnL. I take 60 mgs. I have not added any St. John's yet but am prepared to do so if my mood wanes. Hope all goes well for you and keep us posted. BTW--I go for the overlap approach in weaning off prescription AD's and on to supplements.Thanks for the comments, John and Leonora. Fortunately, my doctor is traditionally-trained, but well aware of herbs and natural supplements. She should know about both 5HTP and SAMe. She also transitions *very* slowly (taking a full month to do so).
What is serotonin syndrome?
