I was hoping to start taking curcumin to help reduce inflammation, but remembered to check about any possible interaction with the SSRI I am taking.
I am on 10 mg/day of Escitalopram (Lexapro). I would like to start taking the NOW brand at 400 mg/day of Longvida Optimized curcumin. I found some information that said curcumin can interact with SSRI and cause serotonin syndrome because of its MAOI effects. Any thoughts / experiences with this? Thanks for your help.
