Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A psychiatric disease caused by an excess of serotonin neurotransmitter molecules in synapses indicates that there is an overactivity of serotonin in the brain. Therefore, the best treatment option is to use a serotonin antagonist to normalize the levels of serotonin and restore balance in the synapses. A serotonin agonist would only worsen the condition by increasing the levels of serotonin even further. Norepinephrine agonist and GABA antagonist are not relevant to treating excess serotonin neurotransmitter molecules in synapses.
