1. What SERTRALINA ALMUS is and what it is used for

SERTRALINA ALMUS contains the active substance sertraline. Sertraline belongs to a group of
medicines known as Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs); these medicines
are used to treat depression and/or anxiety disorders.
SERTRALINA ALMUS may be used to treat the following conditions:

  • 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 one used to.
OCD and panic disorder are anxiety-related illnesses with symptoms such as persistent, intrusive worries (obsessions) leading to repetitive ritualistic behaviours (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 ALMUS has been prescribed for you.

2. What you should know before taking SERTRALINA ALMUS

Do not take SERTRALINA ALMUS

  • 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 known as 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 SERTRALINA ALMUS.
Medicines are not always suitable for everyone. Inform your doctor before taking SERTRALINA ALMUS if you suffer or have previously suffered from any of the following conditions:

  • If you have epilepsy (seizures) or a history of seizures. If you experience a seizure, contact your doctor immediately.
  • If you have suffered from bipolar disorder (manic-depressive illness) or schizophrenia. If you experience 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 certain medicines are taken 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 levels of sodium in the blood, as this condition may occur as a result of treatment with SERTRALINA ALMUS. You should also inform your doctor if you are taking certain medicines for high blood pressure, as these may also alter blood sodium levels.
  • If you are elderly, as you may be at increased risk of low blood sodium levels (see above).
  • If you have liver disease: your doctor may decide to prescribe a lower dose of SERTRALINA ALMUS.
  • If you have diabetes: blood glucose levels may be affected by treatment with SERTRALINA ALMUS, and it may be necessary to adjust the dose of your diabetes medicines.
  • If you have had bleeding problems or are taking medicines that thin the blood (e.g. acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) or warfarin), or medicines that may increase the risk of bleeding, or if you are pregnant (see section Pregnancy, breastfeeding and fertility).
  • Children or adolescents under 18 years of age. SERTRALINA ALMUS 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 monitor them carefully (see below 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 abnormality in your 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.

Medicines such as SERTRALINA ALMUS (so-called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and serotonin-noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs)) may cause symptoms of sexual dysfunction (see section 4). In some cases, these symptoms have persisted after discontinuation of treatment.
Restlessness/Akathisia
Use of sertraline has been associated with anxious restlessness and an urge to move, often accompanied by an inability to sit or stand still (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, speak with your doctor if this occurs.
Withdrawal reaction
Undesirable effects related to stopping treatment (withdrawal reactions) are common, especially if treatment is stopped abruptly (see section 3. If you stop taking SERTRALINA ALMUS 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 usually 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 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 of harming or killing yourself. These thoughts may worsen when starting antidepressants, as all these medicines require time to become effective, usually about 2 weeks but sometimes longer.
You are more likely to have such thoughts if:

  • You have previously thought about 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 of harming or killing yourself, contact your doctor or go immediately to the nearest hospital. It may be helpful to inform a relative or close friend that you are depressed or have an anxiety disorder and ask them to read this leaflet. You may also ask them whether they think your depression or anxiety disorder is worsening, or if 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 in 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 harming or killing oneself (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 SERTRALINA ALMUS to a patient under 18 years of age if it is in the patient's best interest. If your doctor has prescribed SERTRALINA ALMUS to you and you are under 18 years of age and wish to discuss this decision with your doctor, please contact them. Furthermore, if any of the symptoms listed above appear or worsen while a patient under 18 years of age is being treated with SERTRALINA ALMUS, you must inform the doctor.
Finally, the long-term safety of SERTRALINA ALMUS on growth, maturation, learning ability (cognitive development), and behavioural development in this age group has not been established.
Other medicines and SERTRALINA ALMUS
Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines, including those not requiring a prescription.
Some medicines may affect the activity of SERTRALINA ALMUS, or SERTRALINA ALMUS may reduce the effectiveness of other medicines taken at the same time.
Taking SERTRALINA ALMUS with the following medicines may cause serious adverse events:

  • Medicines known as monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), such as moclobemide (used to treat depression) and 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 SERTRALINA ALMUS together with these medicines.
  • Medicines used to treat mental disorders such as psychosis (pimozide). Do not use SERTRALINA ALMUS together with pimozide.
  • Do not use SERTRALINA ALMUS together with disulfiram.

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). The effects of St. John’s wort may last for 1–2 weeks.
  • Products containing the amino acid tryptophan.

  • 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).

SERTRALINA ALMUS with food, drinks and alcohol
SERTRALINA ALMUS tablets can be taken with or without food.
Alcohol consumption should be avoided during treatment with SERTRALINA ALMUS.
Sertraline should not be taken together 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, planning to become pregnant, or 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 Sertralina Almus 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 Sertralina Almus so they can advise you on what to do.
Ensure that your midwife and/or doctor are aware that you are being treated with SERTRALINA ALMUS.
When taken during pregnancy, particularly during the last three months, medicines such as SERTRALINA ALMUS 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 appear bluish. These symptoms usually begin within the first 24 hours after birth. If your baby develops these symptoms, contact your midwife and/or doctor immediately.
Your 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 reflexes,
  • Irritability,
  • Low blood sugar.

If your newborn shows any of the symptoms listed above, 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, do not drive or operate machinery until you are certain that this medicine does not affect your ability to perform these activities.
SERTRALINA ALMUS contains sodium
This medicine contains less than 1 mmol (23 mg) of sodium per tablet, i.e. essentially 'sodium-free'.
