Serotonin : I am a psychologist, not a medical doctor, but my understanding is that there is more serotonin in the gastrointestinal tract then there is in the brain. This is why G.I. side effects are common with many of the serotonergic antidepressants. ask your prescribing doctor for direction regarding these symptoms.
