Serotonin is a naturally occurring neurotransmitter that has a role in determining mood and emotions. A
shortage of serotonin has been linked to phobias, schizophrenia, aggressive behaviour, depression,
uncontrolled appetite, and migraine headaches. Several types of drugs affect serotonin levels:
o Prozac, Paxil, Zoloft - cause serotonin to remain longer in the brain.
o Clozapine - prevents serotonin from binding to the postsynaptic membranes.
o Hallucinogens (LSD, ecstasy) - react directly with the serotonin receptors to produce the same
effect as serotonin.
