ÖZET
Serotonin syndrome is a drug side effect resulting from serotonergic hyperactivity. The severity of its symptoms can be mild and overlooked and sometimes it may cause life-threatening serious consequences. This syndrome is caused by the administration of one or more drugs having serotonergic activity. This case is a 25-year-old female patient who attempted suicide by ingesting an overdose of her prescription medications: 60 units of 100-mg Faver (Fluvoxamine), 20 units of 50-mg Setral (Setraline), and 10 units of 20-mg Paxil (Paroxetine).
