>>>When SSRIs increase synaptic serotonin, one undesired consequence is increased stimulation of the 2a/2c receptors. This increased stimulation of excitatory serotonin receptors is what's implicated in SSRIs' paradoxical effect of actually increasing anxiety and suicide risk within the first few weeks. It's not until the 2a/2c receptors start to downregulate/desensitize that anxiolytic effects are felt.
D@MN!!!
i wish i had known this a couple years ago....this is EXACTLY what happened to me..and landed me my very first visit to the ER. i tried and tried to tell the doctors it was the med i was on and they wouldn't listed to me, and wouldn't take me off it FINALLY after two weeks in the hospital my doc had a weekend off and the on-call doc saw me i told him I WANT OFF cymbyax and he agreed....THREE freaking days later i was out!yes it is an antagonist for 2a and 2c. i think i'm confusing myself with my own posts...did i write something contrary to that?? sorry for my bad.
