Here are two articles that talk about serotonin and SSRI medications and gut function and the microbiome. Anything that alters serotonin alters the microbiome and I think that in my case my remaining medications are probably contributing heavily to the IBS that I'm dealing with. I am definitely making some progress but I think I'm fighting an uphill battle while still on these and probably anybody that is on these medications is going to be fighting that uphill battle. In short meds are bad for the gut.
