Abstract
Antipsychotic and antidepressant medications have been associated with rhabdomyolysis in vulnerable subjects. Serotonin-mediated toxicity has been proposed as a plausible etiological factor in these cases. Thus, psychotropic medications involving this neurotransmitter should be used cautiously in subjects at risk for serotonin hyperactivity.
