In reply to Mood Stablizer with ZERO serotonin effect?, posted by NewHampshireGuy on June 9, 2008, at 8:39:52
I didn't think lamotrigine had any significant activity at serotonin receptors, but someone may come along and correct me. Lithium certainly does exert some of its clinical effects via the serotonin system - it shouldn't normally be combined with SSRIs becuase there's a risk of serotonin toxicity. I don't think Depakote has any serotonin activity, but are you sure the side effects you're having with lamotrigine are purely due to serotonin? There may be some other cause.
