They keep more of the already made serotonin around thus reuptake inhibitning. I don't think they know for sure if somehow the body detects more serotonin in the system if at some point it down regulates by making less....seems like you would of heard more about this sooner.....prozac has been here 20 years already. Shouldn't there be a bunch of serotonin lacking idiots stumbling around out there....I don't see it.
