Probably not the best idea since if you are taking something that actually increases serotonin you will give yourself antidepressant discontinuation syndrome by stopping abruptly.

- aantix 12y agoYou're exhausting to discuss with, even over the Internet. 300mg is a very normal dose. Serotonin syndrome isn't going to be induced with such conservative dosing.
- UrMomReadsHN 12y ago....? I never said anything about serotonin syndrome...?? ... Furthermore, I wasn't even the original GP, so how am I "exhausting?" The only thing I said was supplements are basically unregulated (theres a good chance your bottle of St Johns Wort is actually rice powder * ) and talk to your doctor before taking supplement and before stopping supplements abruptly. Trust me, antidepressant discontinuation syndrome is complete HELL. * http://mobile.nytimes.com/2013/11/05/science/herbal-supplements-are-often-not-what-they-seem.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0 http://mobile.nytimes.com/2013/11/05/science/herbal-suppleme...
