What is the name of the appetite suppressant and what is in it?
This from http://www.drugs.com/pro/venlafaxine.html
"Patients should be cautioned about the risk of serotonin syndrome with the concomitant use of Venlafaxine hydrochloride and triptans, tramadol, tryptophan supplements or other serotonergic agents (see WARNINGS, Serotonin Syndrome and PRECAUTIONS, Drug Interactions, CNS-Active Drugs)."
It is important that you check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking the appetitie suppressant.
