Vortioxetine is an antidepressant with a multimodal mechanism of action. It is used as a treatment option for patients with major depressive episodes. There have only been two previously reported non-fatal overdoses of vortioxetine; neither of these were analytically confirmed There has also been one case of serotonin syndrome potentially related to vortioxetine and two deaths where vortioxetine was detected. We report here a non-fatal analytically confirmed case of vortioxetine overdose.
