3. Irregular Heartbeat
The effects of too much serotonin go beyond neurological and will begin to affect the cardiovascular system. This syndrome will cause an irregular heart rate and high blood pressure. Those who have a history of cardiovascular issues are particularly at higher risk since more stress is being put on the heart. The higher levels of serotonin will cause a rapid heart rate.
A higher heart rate puts more stress on the body and plays a part in raising the body temperature. The syndrome will get worse since the hotter you get the more your heart rate rises. Not getting medical help as soon as possible can lead to irreversible damage.
