I have pmdd. what supplements are safe together? 5htp, st. john's wort, vitex, calcium, omega 3, d, magnesium, b? i don't want serotonin syndrome.

St Johns & 5htp: Avoid using both St Johns Wort and 5htp. Usually taking prescription SSRIs in combo and some other psychotropic medications can cause that so following close care by doctor is needed. Try to find a naturopath. The other items you mention do not relate to serotonin - so this is not a risk.
