Because serotonin toxydrome it's not tested in the laboratory for diagnosis, symptoms tend to be the one that need seen. The greatest set of criteria to use to diagnose serotonin toxicity is Hunter Serotonin Toxicity Criteria.

Treatment for serotonin syndrome are because follows: discontinuing drugs that made the o.d. posible as well as drugs which can lead management of serotonin antagonist (eg. cyproheptadine) for sever cases of toxicity for agitation, muscle tightness and capture like movements, benzodiazepines (Valium, Ativan) Intra venous liquids Because serotonin syndrome is not all to easy to diagnose, prevention is wanted for any serotonin drugs mixture of that will lead to serotonin toxicity.
