One of the frequent side effects of TBI is depression.
Also known is that the side effects of medication ( SSRIs et al ) can be magnified in such patients, even in small doses.
Subsequent to the development of Prozac, all work on possible alternative supplements to improve serotonin ceased. It was argued, that L-Tryptophan and/or 5HTP did not pass the blood-brain-barrier.
Subsequently, I think that this has been shown not to be the case, and that both can affect an increase in Serotonin levels in the brain.
Are readers aware of any such research to support this view or would like to comment on this contention.
