In reply to Serotonin syndrome - Nardil + Stablon (tianeptine), posted by Muad' Dib on February 6, 2006, at 0:13:11
I don't know what the risk of SS is if nardil and stablon are mixed. I think stablon will increase the flow of serotonin, but I don't know if it will increase serotonin levels.
Are the pills tabs or capsules? If tabs, cut them into quarters. If capsules, dump some of the contents out. Start real low. Stay at each new dose for a week before moving up.
Just be on the lookout for SS symptoms. Be aware that they might not appear all of a sudden, but may appear in gradual subtle fashion over days or even weeks. Just keep a sharp eye out.
I've done questionable or risky med trials before. It's sad some of us feel so bad that we feel we have to do that, but I guess that is reality. Go low and slow. That way any problems can be caught early before they get out of hand.
