Serotonin syndrome usually occurs after treatment with monoamine oxydase inhibitors and drugs that enhance serotoninergic transmission. Serotonin agents, such as Proza, are commonly prescribed drugs; therefore, the serotonin syndrome appears more frequently than before. Clinicians must be able to prevent, recognize, and treat this syndrome in their practice. This review summarizes the literature of case reports of patients who developed the serotonin syndrome.
