*'''[[Dextromethorphan]]''' - Dextromethorphan is a serotonin releaser as well as an SSRI, therefore has a potential to cause [[serotonin syndrome]], a potentially deadly condition caused by extremely high serotonin levels. Although serotonin syndrome caused by this combination is uncommon, it is strongly advised not to combine them, especially if either is at a high dose. | *'''[[Dextromethorphan]]''' - Dextromethorphan is a serotonin releaser as well as an SSRI, therefore has a potential to cause [[serotonin syndrome]], a potentially deadly condition caused by extremely high serotonin levels.
