I am stumped and I figured this quick thread could get my question answered quick. I started taking Quercetin a couple of weeks ago for its obvious benifits for the mind and body. Well, three days or so on it I posted that on this site. Someone told me that, since Im on Zoloft, an SSRI, and Quercetin acts like a MAOI or something, that its very dangerous for seretonin toxicity. True? I havent found any info on this yet. It seems that Q has a lot of benifits, including potentinating my methadone, 40mg a day. It seems to react with everything, Q that is. I said screw it and took one the last 4 days. It dives me energy and seems to kick the methadone in better. Not much but good enough. That seritonin syndrome stuff scares me. I obviously do not wanna harm myself. I feel nothing negative. I actually feel a little better and happier. Well, lets just say my mood is better. What suggestions do you all have for me pertaining to the Quercetin? Good.....or bad. I thought I would learn a lot from you all. Thats why I created the thread. I searched but didnt find what I was looking for. Thanks!

P.S. I stopped taking the Q when I read that reply about the MAOI. Sorry if I didnt make that clear. And, I started back a few days ago.

if it is, it's incredibly weak and only something to worry about if you're taking absurd amounts. Compare Rhodiola rosacea.
