In reply to An AD that affects serotonin besides an SSRI, posted by Laney on December 28, 2009, at 18:50:54
Tryptophan with B6 and Niacin will increase serotonin. I got heavy SSRI sexual side effects from 5HTP, but most people do not get any side effects at all. I'm weird. Tryptophan however had no sexual side effects, but from the feel of it definitely make a lot of serotonin.
St Johns Wort, ususally does not have the sexual side effects of SSRIs.
Remeron is supposedly serotonergic but since it can be combined with MAOIs, it probably really doesn't do much to increase serotonin.
