Dear Tammy - Dr. Tarlow gave you some important info on overbreathing but you also asked about Serzone. Serzone is an antidepressant that is no longer marketed in the U.S. because of a rare but potentially dangerous effect on the liver. You can go to www.drugs.com for information on Serzone and to the MyDepressionConnection.com section at HealthCentral for a list of safer and more commonly used antidepressants. Please confer with your primary physician if you think that you might want to consider taking any of these medications.
Dr. Rick Wirtz
