1. What Sertralina Accord is and what it is used for

Sertralina Accord contains the active substance sertraline. Sertraline belongs to a group of medicines known as Selective Serotonin Re-uptake Inhibitors (SSRIs); these medicines are used to treat depression and/or anxiety disorders.
Sertralina Accord may be used to treat:

  • Depression and prevention of recurrence of depression (in adults).
  • Social anxiety disorder (in adults).
  • Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) (in adults).
  • Panic disorder (in adults).
  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) (in adults and in children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years).

Depression is a clinical illness with symptoms such as feeling sad, inability to sleep properly or to enjoy life as you used to.
OCD and panic disorder are anxiety-related conditions with symptoms such as persistent, intrusive worries (obsessions) that lead you to perform ritualistic actions (compulsions).
PTSD is a condition that may occur after a strongly traumatic experience, and some symptoms of this condition are similar to those of depression and anxiety. Social anxiety disorder (social phobia) is an anxiety-related illness. It is characterised by feelings of intense anxiety or distress in social situations (e.g. speaking to strangers, speaking in public, eating or drinking in front of others, or fear of behaving in an embarrassing way).
Your doctor has determined that this medicine is suitable for treating your condition.
Ask your doctor if you are unsure why Sertralina Accord has been prescribed for you.
Contact your doctor if you do not feel better or if you feel worse.

2. What you should know before taking Sertraline Accord

Do not take Sertraline Accord:

  • If you are allergic to sertraline or to any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
  • If you are currently taking, or have recently taken, medicines called monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs, such as selegiline, moclobemide), or medicines with MAOI-like activity (such as linezolid). If you stop treatment with sertraline, you must wait at least one week before starting treatment with an MAOI. After stopping treatment with an MAOI, you must wait at least two weeks before starting treatment with sertraline.
  • If you are taking another medicine called pimozide (a medicine used for mental disorders such as psychosis).

Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Sertraline Accord.
Medicines are not always suitable for everyone. Inform your doctor before taking Sertraline Accord if you suffer, or have previously suffered, from any of the following conditions:

  • If you have epilepsy (epileptic seizures) or a history of seizures. In case of a seizure, contact your doctor immediately.
  • If you have suffered from bipolar disorder (manic-depressive illness) or schizophrenia. In case of a manic episode, contact your doctor immediately.
  • If you are having or have ever had thoughts of harming or killing yourself (see below – Suicidal thoughts and worsening of depression or anxiety disorder).
  • If you suffer from serotonin syndrome. In rare cases, this syndrome may occur when taking certain medicines together with sertraline (for symptoms, see section 4. Possible side effects). Your doctor will determine whether you have previously experienced this condition.
  • If you have low sodium levels in the blood, as this condition may occur during treatment with Sertraline Accord. You should also inform your doctor if you are taking certain medicines for high blood pressure, as these may also affect sodium levels in the blood.
  • If you are elderly, as you may be at increased risk of low sodium levels in the blood (see above).
  • If you have liver disease: your doctor may decide to prescribe a lower dose of Sertraline Accord.
  • If you have diabetes: blood glucose levels may be affected by treatment with Sertraline Accord, and the dose of your diabetes medicines may need to be adjusted. Also inform your doctor if you have a history of bleeding disorders (tendency to bruise easily), if you are pregnant (see Pregnancy, breastfeeding and fertility), or if you are taking medicines that thin the blood (e.g. acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) or warfarin) or medicines that may increase the risk of bleeding.
  • If you are a child or adolescent under 18 years of age. Sertraline Accord should only be used to treat children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years who suffer from obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). If a child or adolescent is being treated for this disorder, the doctor will want to monitor them closely (see below Use in children and adolescents).
  • If you are undergoing electroconvulsive therapy (ECT).
  • If you have eye problems, such as certain types of glaucoma (increased pressure in the eye).
  • If you have been diagnosed with an abnormal heart rhythm on electrocardiogram (ECG), known as QT interval prolongation.
  • If you have heart disease, low potassium or magnesium levels, a family history of QT interval prolongation, slow heart rate, or are taking concomitant medicines that prolong the QT interval.

Sexual problems:
Medicines such as sertraline tablets (so-called SSRIs) may cause symptoms of sexual dysfunction (see section 4). In some cases, these symptoms may persist after discontinuation of treatment.
Restlessness/Akathisia
The use of sertraline has been associated with distressing restlessness and a need to move, often accompanied by an inability to sit still or remain motionless (akathisia). This condition is more likely to occur during the first few weeks of treatment. Increasing the dose may be harmful for patients who develop these symptoms; therefore, discuss this with your doctor.
Withdrawal reaction
Undesirable effects related to stopping treatment (withdrawal reactions) are common, especially if treatment is stopped suddenly (see section 3 “If you stop taking Sertraline Accord” and section 4 “Possible side effects”). The risk of withdrawal reactions depends on the duration of treatment, the dose, and the extent of dose reduction. These symptoms are usually mild to moderate in intensity. However, in some patients, they may be severe. They typically occur within the first few days after stopping treatment. Generally, these symptoms resolve on their own within 2 weeks. In some patients, they may last longer (2–3 months or more). When stopping treatment with sertraline, it is recommended to gradually reduce the dose over a period of several weeks or months. Always talk to your doctor to determine the best way to stop treatment.
Suicidal thoughts and worsening of depression or anxiety disorder:
If you are depressed and/or have anxiety disorders, you may sometimes have thoughts about harming or killing yourself. These thoughts may worsen when starting antidepressants, as all these medicines require time before they become effective, usually about 2 weeks but sometimes longer.
You are more likely to have such thoughts if:

  • You have previously had thoughts of killing yourself or harming yourself.
  • You are a young adult. Available data from clinical trials have shown an increased risk of suicidal behaviour in adults under 25 years of age with psychiatric conditions treated with an antidepressant.

If at any time you have thoughts about harming or killing yourself, contact your doctor or go immediately to the nearest hospital.
It may be helpful to inform a close family member or friend that you are depressed or have an anxiety disorder and ask them to read this leaflet. You may ask them to observe whether your depression or anxiety disorder is worsening, or whether they are concerned about changes in your behaviour.
Children and adolescents:
Sertraline should not routinely be used in children and adolescents under 18 years of age, except for patients with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Patients under 18 years of age have an increased risk of adverse effects such as suicide attempts, thoughts of self-harm or suicide (suicidal thoughts), and hostile behaviour (mainly aggression, oppositional behaviour and anger) when treated with this class of medicines. However, your doctor may decide to prescribe Sertraline Accord to a patient under 18 years of age if it is in the patient’s best interest. If your doctor has prescribed Sertraline Accord to you and you are under 18 years of age and wish to discuss this decision, please contact your doctor. Additionally, if any of the symptoms listed above appear or worsen during treatment with Sertraline tablets, you must inform your doctor. The long-term safety of Sertraline tablets with regard to growth, maturation and cognitive development, and behavioural development has been evaluated in a long-term study involving over 900 children aged 6 to 16 years, monitored for a period of 3 years. Overall, the study results showed that children treated with sertraline had normal development, apart from a slight increase in weight in those treated with higher doses.
Other medicines and Sertraline Accord
Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines.
Some medicines may affect the activity of Sertraline Accord, or Sertraline Accord may reduce the effectiveness of other medicines taken at the same time.

  • Medicines called monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), such as moclobemide (used to treat depression), selegiline (used to treat Parkinson’s disease), the antibiotic linezolid, and methylene blue (used to treat high levels of methaemoglobin in the blood). Do not use Sertraline Accord together with these medicines.
  • Medicines used to treat mental disorders such as psychosis (pimozide). Do not use Sertraline Accord together with pimozide.

Inform your doctor if you are taking any of the following medicines:

  • Medicines containing amphetamines (used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), narcolepsy, and obesity).
  • Herbal medicines containing St. John’s wort (Hypericum perforatum).

  • Medicines used to treat high blood pressure, chest pain, or to regulate heart rate and rhythm (such as verapamil, diltiazem, flecainide, and propafenone).
  • Medicines used to treat bacterial infections (such as rifampicin, clarithromycin, telithromycin, erythromycin).
  • Medicines used to treat fungal infections (such as ketoconazole, itraconazole, posaconazole, voriconazole, fluconazole).
  • Medicines used to treat HIV/AIDS and hepatitis C (protease inhibitors such as ritonavir, telaprevir).
  • Medicines used to prevent nausea and vomiting after surgery or chemotherapy (aprepitant).

Sertraline Accord with food, drinks and alcohol:
Sertraline Accord may be taken with or without food.
Alcohol consumption should be avoided during treatment with Sertraline Accord.
Sertraline must not be taken with grapefruit juice, as this may increase sertraline levels in the body.
Pregnancy, breastfeeding and fertility:
If you are pregnant, think you may be pregnant, are planning to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding, consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking this medicine.
The safety of sertraline in pregnant women has not been fully established. Sertraline should be given to pregnant women only if the doctor considers that the benefit to the mother outweighs any possible risk to the developing baby.
If you take Sertraline Accord near the end of pregnancy, there may be an increased risk of heavy vaginal bleeding shortly after delivery, especially if you have bleeding disorders (a tendency to bleed easily). Inform your doctor or midwife that you are taking Sertraline Accord so they can advise you accordingly. When taken during pregnancy, particularly during the last three months, medicines such as Sertraline Accord may increase the risk of a serious condition in newborns called persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN). This condition causes the newborn to breathe rapidly and have a bluish skin colour. These symptoms usually begin within the first 24 hours after birth. If this happens to your baby, contact the midwife and/or doctor immediately.
The baby may also experience other conditions, which usually begin within the first 24 hours after birth. Symptoms include:

  • Breathing difficulties,
  • Bluish skin colour or being too hot or too cold,
  • Bluish lips,
  • Vomiting or feeding difficulties,
  • Being very tired, unable to sleep, or crying excessively,
  • Stiff or floppy muscles,
  • Tremors, nervousness, jerks,
  • Increased reflex responses,
  • Irritability,
  • Low blood sugar levels.

If your baby shows any of the above symptoms at birth, or if you have any concerns about your baby’s health, contact your doctor or midwife, who will be able to advise you.
There is evidence that sertraline is excreted in human breast milk. Sertraline should only be used during breastfeeding if the doctor considers that the benefit to the mother outweighs any possible risk to the baby.
In animal studies, some medicines like sertraline may reduce sperm quality. In theory, this could affect fertility, but no impact on human fertility has been observed.
Driving and using machines:
Psychotropic medicines such as sertraline may affect your ability to drive or operate machinery. Therefore, you should not drive or operate machinery until you know whether this medicine affects your ability to perform these activities.
Sodium content in Sertraline tablets:
This medicine contains less than 1 mmol (23 mg) of sodium per tablet, i.e. essentially "sodium-free".
