lexapro and marijuana?

Posted by anna345 on April 29, 2003, at 16:35:56

My brother was on Lexapro for 3 days and was feeling weird. He was over my place when some friends of mine were smoking pot. Later that night at 4:30 in the morning he woke up convulsing and unable to speak. His roommate took him to the hospital and they said it was a seretonin overdose. They also said that marijuana was in his system, even though he did not smoke. Is it possible that lexapro and pot cause seroton syndrom and my next question is why is he still having adverse effects? He stopped taking Lexapro after the reaction but 3 weeks later he had similar symptoms and now a few days later he has woken up with tremors again. The doctor have been extrodinarily unhelpful and would rather belive he is crazy and has an anxiety disorder. Can anyone please give me some insight?!
