I really want to try curcumin because of its anti inflammatory properties, and have been reading vague warnings about potential for minor interactions, because curcumin inhibits an enzyme that metabolizes Fluvoxamine (among many other SSRIs) which could lead to Serotonin Syndrome. I'm on 100 mg of Fluvoxamine/day.
Yesterday "webmd" and "drugs" said nothing about interactions so I took a couple of curcumin pills, but by nighttime I began running into other sites that had "minor warnings" about this so I didn't take my Luvox to be safe and ended up having brain zaps all day long from missing the dose (I hate this medication. What stupid SSRI causes discontinuation syndrome after one missed dose.)
Is anyone out there currently trying this type of combination and have anything to say about it? thx!
