Abstract

The diagnosis criteria for serotoninergic syndrome was first time proposed in 1991 by Sternbach, mixing clinical, biological and historical features. Drugs inducing serotonin accumulation by decreasing the synaptic recapture or increasing the serotoninergic transmission are responsible for the onset of this syndrome even in small amounts. We are describing a case of a young patient developing a comatose stage of serotoninergic syndrome as a result of Amitriptylinum and Sertralinum poisoning.
