Antidepressant and antiobesity drug-induced serotonin syndrome complicated by multiple organ injury: A case report
This case highlights that SS should be considered as an etiology of unexplained episodes of altered mental status and neuromuscular abnormalities. Rarely, this condition can be complicated by multiple organ injury, involving conditions such as rhabdomyolysis, renal failure, SCM and PTE. Thus, physicians must be aware of the various and atypical manifestations of serotonin syndrome in order to avoid missing the diagnosis of a potentially fatal condition.
