SLS has a webpage that shows mechanisms of many drugs. You can find it here:
http://sl.schofield3.home.att.net/medicine/psychiatric_drugs_chart.html

From a quick look, here are some options:
amitriptyline
clomipramine
clonazepam
clozapine
doxepin
duloxetine
imipramine
mirtazapine
nefazodone
nortriptyline
sibutramine
trazodone
venlafaxine

Those are only the drugs I'd heard of, which list serotonin increase or reuptake inhibition. And they're not necessarily drugs that target primarily serotonin. The tricyclics are represented pretty heavily, for example, alhtough most aren't especially selective.

Frankly, I think I'd ask your doctor what can be done about the side effects, if the drugs are helpful for you, rather than looking for a whole 'nother category of medication, with a whole 'nother category of side effects.

Good luck.
