> I think I took it with Cymbalta for a while, but I quit the Cymbalta. Now I am starting Pristiq (for OCD) but I really don't want to give up the Tramadol because it helps my tics. I guess I'd rather have tics than serotonin syndrome.
So you haven't had any problems combining like that? Serotonin syndrome tends to happen with sudden changes in serotonergic tone, i.e. in the beginning of treatment or while raising doses. Once you've stabilized there shouldn't be much to worry about.
