==Pharmacology== Certain combinations of medical drugs have been reported to increase the chances of ''déjà vu'' occurring in the user. Taiminen and Jääskeläinen (2001)<ref>{{Cite journal | last1 = Taiminen | first1 = T.S. | title = Intense and recurrent déjà vu experiences related to amantadine and phenylpropanolamine in a healthy male | journal = Journal of Clinical Neuroscience | volume = 8 | last2 = Jääskeläinen | issue = 5 | pages = 460–462 | year = 2001 | pmid = 11535020 | doi = 10.1054/jocn.2000.0810 | s2cid = 6733989 }}</ref> explored the case of an otherwise healthy person who started experiencing intense and recurrent sensations of ''déjà vu'' upon taking the drugs [[amantadine]] and [[phenylpropanolamine]] together to relieve flu symptoms. Because of the [[dopaminergic]] action of the drugs and previous findings from electrode stimulation of the brain (e.g. Bancaud, Brunet-Bourgin, Chauvel, & Halgren, 1994),<ref>{{Cite journal | doi = 10.1093/brain/117.1.71 | pmid = 8149215 | year = 1994 | last1 = Bancaud | first1 = J. | last2 = Brunet-Bourgin | first2 = F. | last3 = Chauvel | first3 = P. | last4 = Halgren | first4 = E. | title = Anatomical origin of déjà vu and vivid 'memories' in human temporal lobe epilepsy | volume = 117 | pages = 71–90 | journal = Brain: A Journal of Neurology | issue=1 }}</ref> Tamminen and Jääskeläinen speculated that ''déjà vu'' occurs as a result of hyperdopaminergic [[Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy|action]] in the medial [[Temporal lobe|temporal]] areas of the brain. A similar case study by Karla, Chancellor, and Zeman (2007) suggests a link between ''déjà vu'' and the [[Serotonin|serotonergic system]], after an otherwise healthy woman began experiencing similar symptoms while taking a combination of [[5-Hydroxytryptophan|5-hydroxytryptophan]] and [[carbidopa]].<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Kalra |first1=Seema |last2=Chancellor |first2=Andrew |last3=Zeman |first3=Adam |date=2007 |title=Recurring déjà vu associated with 5-hydroxytryptophan |url=https://www.cambridge.org/core/product/identifier/S0924270800002623/type/journal_article |journal=Acta Neuropsychiatrica |language=en |volume=19 |issue=5 |pages=311–313 |doi=10.1111/j.1601-5215.2007.00245.x |pmid=26952944 |s2cid=41092669 |issn=0924-2708}}</ref>
