Re: 5ht2c Agonists for BP Mania? (Lorcaserin)

I guess the DEA found evidence Lorcaserin can cause euphoria/hallucinations at higher dosages (40-60mg when max is 10mg bid). Hence its schedule IV class:

I'm only taking 10mg in the AM. Guess it could be the cause of my spaciness. Eh. I see my doc soon so I'll have to talk to him about the risk again. Would be unfortunate to come off as I think it's also helping fight back the depression I was anticipating after ceasing Marplan to start 2015 (Insurance issue).

I still think this is a good discussion. Does anyone thing Lorcaserin could have a as a place
