You could be right. How does the SRI properties of tramadol compare to those of trazodone? I experienced some mild SS symptoms from combining trazodone with clorgyline, a potent MAO-A inhibitor.

I am concerned whenever a serotonin reuptake inhibitor is combined with a MAOI. I don't think there is any greater risk of precipitating serotonin syndrome than combining these drugs. I am very afraid to add tramadol. Hopefully, I won't need to.
