We can't rule out medical condition here. While we are 100% sure you don't have serotonin syndrome if you experience fever while you think you have it I would rush to the hospital and take a Xanax before. Fever is the symptoms that along with agitation and sweating will tell you for sure it is serotonin syndrome.

A normal dose of Prozac also wouldn't cause SS.  You'd know if you had it....it is very severe, you would most likely be in the hospital.

Try to focus on other things, go for a walk, watch a movie....something to get your mind off of these repetitive worries.

alot of my symptoms i was having before the adderall...so i cannt just blame it..i have thought i had serotonin syndrome since being put on the prozac

You don't have Serotonin Syndrome.  Your symptoms are side effects of the Adderall.  Call your doctor Monday and ask to be seen...when you get there, tell him you want off the Adderall, it was a poor choice to begin with.  I would tell you to just quit taking it all together, but you must check with your doctor first.

Adderal mimic serotonin syndrome like do all amphetamines. If you get fever then rush to the hospital. Benzos like Xanax are used to calm someone from a serotonin syndrome.. Just letting you know.
