> However, if a particular individual happens to be vulnerable to serotonin syndrome propagating through the 1A receptor, adding an agent such as Risperdal can actually worsen the situation because blockading the 5-HT2A receptor reinforces the gene expression on 1A.
Is there a latency between the time the 5-HT2a receptors are antagonized and the reinforced expression of 5-HT1a? In your estimation, should cyproheptadine be used as an antidote to SS?
