Serotonin syndrome is a potentially life-threatening condition that can occur when there is too much serotonin in the brain. It can be caused by taking certain medications, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) like paroxetine, and can cause symptoms such as agitation, confusion, rapid heart rate, and high blood pressure. If you are taking paroxetine or any other medication and experience symptoms of serotonin syndrome, it is important to seek medical attention immediately.
