What are the Treatment Options for Serotonin Toxicity?
Treatment for serotonin toxicity involves discontinuing the offending agents and providing supportive care. Mild cases may resolve with observation and cessation of serotonergic drugs. Moderate to severe cases may require hospitalization, administration of benzodiazepines for agitation, and in some cases, the use of serotonin antagonists like cyproheptadine. Cooling measures and intravenous fluids are crucial for managing hyperthermia and dehydration.
