Most of us (myself included, four years on Serzone) have not switched because of the liver problem.
From what my pdoc says, this is more like an allergic reaction in that occurs very quickly when starting the med, if it's going to happen at all. That doesn't mean this and other meds aren't toxic to the liver. It just means that it's *probably* not a threat to those of us who have been on it long term.
I have my liver levels tested twice a year, but I'm sticking with the Serzone. I'm on it for sleep, so....
