TV show House and LSD

Awesome. So I'm watchign an episode of House and he's trying to debunk this anti-migraine medicine, so he injects himself with nitroglycerin which induces migraines. Turns out the drug didn't work so he's stuck with a migraine.
Later in the episode he says he's hallucinating and is later approached by Cutty who is a head person in the hospital and she asks "Did you take LSD?" and starts saying things about LSD.
House says "Or, the LSD will flood my brain with serotonin, stopping the migraine in it's tracks"
Cutty continues to say "I told so-and-so that if you had then you should be high for about 12 hours so if your functioning then probably not" to which House replies "Unless I took anti-depressants which would counter-act the LSD"
Thought it was interesting that there's some useful drug information around if you pay attention.

I saw that too. Better than a lot of what is out there. If you didn't know anything about LSD you could still see that in a negative light though, "not functioning".
Step in the right direction though.

Yes, that is true, and I think most of the people on this board would see it that way. On the street, in the backyard, in the living room, I'm not so sure. Don't mind me tonight, I'm just putting off some last minute work.

no problem man! but yes, I agree with what youre saying. The context in which she said it implied that she was referring to him functioning in the sense of him doing his job.

I just hope he wouldn't be taking anti-depressants that raise serotonin, that could be nasty.

thats exactly what he was doing... the mistake he made was to say that serotonin was flooding. lsd mimics serotonin. perhaps this leads to serotonin release down the line, but in the primary effect, serotonin levels are not influenced. the antidepressants also mimic serotonin in a way.. competing with the lsd

LSD doesn't cause serotonin release, I don't think. It does, however, displace serotonin, so there'd be less serotonin on the receptors and more serotonin hanging around elsewhere.

SSRI's like prozac have a highy affinity to the serotonin reuptake transporter than serotonin does. Because of this excess serotonin in the synapse mixing in LSD may not produce any trip at all

Depending on dose from LSD and the SSRI, it will either reduce the intensity of the trip or you could not trip at all. It makes sense on a pharmacology point of view, but i also have had a friend with depression/anxiety take 3 hits of LSD while i did too. He "barly felt anything" while i was off my head tripping. If anyone is on a SSRI it will diminish the effects of a trip, while an MAOI will make you trip harder.

Hmm so what do you know about using pharmacutical MAOI's to boost trips?
