    Well has anyone here ever had experience with taking ketamine with an SSRI, becuase i will be taking zoloft soon, but i should be taking less than 50 mg a day. Here is what it said on erowid-

    *Sertraline* (Zoloft) -- the effect with this antidepressant seems to be dose-dependent. At 50 mg/day, there was no effect on the response to LSD nor to psilocybin. However, at 100 mg/day, there was a decrease in response to both LSD and MDMA.

    Now im worried that it might cause serotonin syndrome becuase i know on the DXM FAQ it says DXM and SSRI's together can cuase serotonin syndrome, so i was just wondering if anyone had any experience.

    DXM causing serotonin syndrome says nothing about ketamine causing it, not even considering they have an identical high; they are completely different molecules other than maybe their mechanism of action

    I doubt that you need to be concerned about serotonin syndrome, with K.
