High IgE Levels (8000) and Vortioxetine

2025-02-01 04:23:54
I recently had my IgE levels tested, and they came back very high (8000). My psychiatrist prescribed Vortioxetine, a multimodal antidepressant. I've read that it may increase histamine levels. Given my high IgE, is it safe for me to take this medication? Could it worsen allergic reactions or cause other issues?
