1. What Sertraline Medreg is and what it is used for
Sertraline Medreg contains the active substance sertraline. Sertraline belongs to a group of medicines called selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors (SSRIs). These medicines are used in the treatment of depressive and/or anxiety disorders.
Sertraline Medreg 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 6–17 years).
Depression is a clinical illness characterized by symptoms such as sadness, sleep disturbances, or loss of pleasure in life.
OCD and panic disorder are anxiety-related conditions involving persistent worry due to intrusive thoughts (obsessions), leading to repetitive rituals (compulsions).
PTSD is a condition that may occur following a traumatic experience and is characterized by certain symptoms similar to depression and anxiety.
Social anxiety disorder (social phobia) is an anxiety-related illness. It is characterized by intense fear or anxiety in social situations (such as talking to strangers, speaking in front of a group of people, eating or drinking in the presence of others, or fear of potentially embarrassing behavior).
Your doctor has decided that this medicine is suitable for treating your condition.
You should consult your doctor if you are unsure why you are taking Sertraline Medreg.
2. Important information before using Sertraline Medreg
When not to use Sertraline Medreg
- if the patient is allergic to sertraline or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
- if the patient is currently taking or has recently taken monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAO inhibitors, e.g. selegiline, moclobemide) or medicines similar to MAO inhibitors (e.g. linezolid). After stopping treatment with sertraline, at least one week must elapse before starting treatment with an MAO inhibitor. After stopping treatment with an MAO inhibitor, at least two weeks must elapse before starting treatment with sertraline.
- if the patient is taking pimozide (a medicine used to treat psychiatric disorders such as psychosis).
Warnings and precautions
Before starting treatment with Sertraline Medreg, discuss this with your doctor or pharmacist.
Medicines are not always suitable for everyone. Before starting treatment with Sertraline Medreg, consult your doctor or pharmacist if the patient currently has or has previously had any of the following conditions:
- if the patient has epilepsy or a history of seizures. If a seizure occurs, contact a doctor immediately.
- if the patient has had bipolar disorder (manic-depressive illness) or schizophrenia. If a manic episode occurs, contact a doctor immediately.
- if the patient currently has or has previously had suicidal thoughts (see below – suicidal thoughts and worsening of depression or anxiety).
- if the patient has serotonin syndrome. In rare cases, this syndrome may occur in patients taking other medicines concomitantly with sertraline. (Symptoms, see section 4. Possible side effects). The doctor should inform the patient whether they have previously experienced serotonin syndrome.
- if the patient has low sodium levels in the blood, which may occur as a result of treatment with Sertraline Medreg. Inform the doctor about taking medicines used to treat high blood pressure, as these may also affect sodium levels in the blood.
- if the patient is elderly; such patients may be more susceptible to low sodium levels in the blood (see above).
- if the patient has liver disease; the doctor may decide to reduce the dose of Sertraline Medreg.
- if the patient has diabetes; Sertraline Medreg may affect blood glucose levels, so a change in the dosage of antidiabetic medicines may be necessary.
- if the patient has previously had bleeding disorders (tendency to bruise) or if the patient is pregnant (see "Pregnancy, breastfeeding and fertility") or has previously taken medicines that prevent blood clotting (e.g. acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) or warfarin) or medicines that may increase the risk of bleeding.
- if the patient is a child or adolescent under 18 years of age. Sertraline Medreg may be used in children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years only for the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder. Patients being treated for this condition should be closely monitored by a doctor (see below "Children and adolescents").
- if the patient is undergoing electroconvulsive therapy (ECT).
- if the patient has eye problems, such as certain types of glaucoma (increased eye pressure).
- if the patient has been diagnosed with abnormalities in the heart's electrical activity on electrocardiogram (ECG), known as prolonged QT interval.
- if the patient has heart disease, low potassium or low magnesium levels, a family history of prolonged QT interval, slow heart rate, and is taking medicines that prolong the QT interval.
Psychomotor agitation/Akathisia
Treatment with sertraline has been associated with the development of a condition characterised by motor restlessness and an urge to move, often with an inability to sit still or remain motionless (akathisia). This condition usually occurs within the first few weeks of treatment. Increasing the dose may be harmful; therefore, if such symptoms occur, consult your doctor.
Abnormalities in urine screening tests
Sertraline may affect the results of urine tests for benzodiazepines. Inform your doctor if the patient is to undergo such a test.
Withdrawal symptoms
Adverse reactions related to discontinuation of treatment (withdrawal symptoms) are common, especially if treatment is stopped abruptly (see section 3. Discontinuing Sertraline Medreg and section 4. Possible side effects). The risk of withdrawal symptoms depends on the duration of treatment, dosage, and rate of dose reduction. These symptoms are generally mild or moderate in intensity, but in some patients they may be severe. They usually occur within the first few days after stopping treatment. They usually resolve spontaneously within 2 weeks, but in some patients they may persist longer (for 2-3 months or more).
If a decision is made to discontinue treatment with sertraline, it is recommended to gradually reduce the dose over several weeks or months, and the best way to discontinue treatment should always be discussed with a doctor.
Suicidal thoughts, worsening of depression or anxiety disorders
People who have depression and (or) anxiety disorders may sometimes have thoughts about self-harm or suicide. Such symptoms or behaviours may worsen at the beginning of treatment with antidepressants, as these medicines usually take at least 2 weeks to start working, and sometimes longer.
The occurrence of suicidal thoughts, thoughts of self-harm or suicide is more likely if:
- the patient has previously had suicidal thoughts or self-harm tendencies.
- the patient is a young adult; clinical trial data indicate an increased risk of suicidal behaviour in people under 25 years of age with psychiatric disorders who are treated with antidepressants. If the patient experiences suicidal thoughts or thoughts of self-harm, contact a doctor immediately or go to hospital.
It may be helpful to inform family members or friends about the depression or anxiety disorder and ask them to read this leaflet. The patient may ask family members or friends for help and ask them to inform him or her if they notice that the depression or anxiety has worsened or if there are disturbing changes in behaviour.
Sexual dysfunction
Medicines such as Sertraline Medreg (so-called SSRIs) may cause symptoms of sexual dysfunction (see section 4). In some cases, these symptoms persisted after discontinuation of treatment.
Children and adolescents
Sertraline should generally not be used in children and adolescents under 18 years of age, except for patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). In patients under 18 years of age, an increased risk of adverse reactions such as suicide attempts, thoughts of killing oneself (suicidal thoughts) and hostility (mainly aggressive behaviour, oppositional behaviour and anger) has been observed during treatment with medicines from this group. However, a doctor may decide to prescribe Sertraline Medreg to a patient under 18 years of age if it is in the patient's best interest. If a doctor prescribes Sertraline Medreg to a patient under 18 years of age and the child's caregiver wishes to discuss this, contact the doctor. Furthermore, if any of the symptoms listed above appear or worsen during treatment with Sertraline Medreg in a patient under 18 years of age, inform the doctor. In a long-term observational study lasting 3 years involving over 900 children aged 6 to 16 years, the long-term safety of sertraline was evaluated with regard to its effects on growth, maturation, learning (cognitive functions) and behaviour. Overall, the study results showed that children treated with sertraline developed normally, except for a slightly reduced weight gain in children treated with higher doses.
Sertraline Medreg and other medicines
Tell your doctor about all medicines you are currently taking or have recently taken, as well as any medicines you plan to take.
Some medicines may affect how Sertraline Medreg works, or Sertraline Medreg may reduce the effectiveness of other medicines taken at the same time.
Taking Sertraline Medreg together with the following medicines may cause serious adverse effects:
- monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAO inhibitors), e.g. 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 methemoglobin in the blood). Do not take Sertraline Medreg together with MAO inhibitors.
- medicines used to treat psychiatric disorders such as psychosis (pimozide). Do not take Sertraline Medreg together with pimozide.
The patient should inform the doctor if they are taking any of the following medicines:
- medicines containing amphetamine (used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), narcolepsy and obesity)
- herbal medicines containing St. John's wort (Hypericum perforatum). The effect of St. John's wort may persist for 1-2 weeks
- products containing the amino acid tryptophan
- medicines used to treat severe or chronic pain (opioids such as tramadol, fentanyl, buprenorphine)
- medicines used in anaesthesia (e.g. fentanyl, mivacurium and suxamethonium)
- medicines used to treat migraine (e.g. sumatriptan)
- medicines that prevent blood clotting (warfarin)
- medicines used to treat joint pain/inflammation (e.g. non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen, acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin))
- metamizole, a medicine used to treat pain and fever
- sedatives (diazepam)
- diuretics (so-called water tablets)
- medicines used to treat epilepsy (phenytoin, phenobarbital, carbamazepine)

- medicines used to treat mania and depression (lithium)
- other medicines used to treat depression (such as amitriptyline, nortriptyline, nefazodone, fluoxetine, fluvoxamine)
- medicines used to treat schizophrenia and other psychiatric disorders (such as perphenazine, levomepromazine and olanzapine)
- medicines used to treat high blood pressure, chest pain or to regulate heart rate and rhythm (such as verapamil, diltiazem, flecainide, 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 virus infection (protease inhibitors such as ritonavir, telaprevir)
- medicines used to prevent nausea and vomiting after chemotherapy (aprepitant)
- medicines that increase the risk of changes in the heart's electrical activity (e.g. some antipsychotics and antibiotics).
Sertraline Medreg with food, drink and alcohol
Sertraline Medreg tablets can be taken with or without food.
During treatment with Sertraline Medreg, alcohol consumption should be avoided.
Do not take sertraline together with grapefruit juice, as this may lead to increased levels of sertraline in the body.
Pregnancy, breastfeeding and fertility
If the patient is pregnant or breastfeeding, suspects she may be pregnant, or is planning to have a baby, she should consult her doctor or pharmacist before using this medicine.
The safety of sertraline use in pregnant women has not been fully established. Sertraline may be administered during pregnancy only if the doctor considers that the benefits to the patient outweigh the risks to the developing baby.
Taking Sertraline Medreg towards the end of pregnancy may increase the risk of serious vaginal bleeding shortly after childbirth, especially if the patient has a history of bleeding disorders. If the patient is taking Sertraline Medreg, she should inform her doctor or midwife so that appropriate advice can be provided.
The use of medicines such as Sertraline Medreg during pregnancy, particularly in the third trimester, may increase the risk of a serious condition in the newborn called persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN), characterised by rapid breathing and bluish skin colour in the baby. These symptoms usually occur within the first 24 hours after birth. If the baby develops any of these symptoms, contact the midwife or doctor immediately.
Other conditions may also occur in the newborn, which usually appear within the first 24 hours after birth. Symptoms may include:
- difficulty breathing
- bluish skin or skin that is too hot or too cold
- blue lips
- vomiting or difficulty feeding
- extreme tiredness, insomnia or constant crying
- increased or decreased muscle tension
- tremors, muscle twitches or seizures
- increased reflex responses
- irritability
- low blood sugar levels.
If the baby develops any of these symptoms after birth or if there is any concern about the baby's health, contact the doctor or midwife for advice.
There is evidence that sertraline passes into breast milk. Sertraline should be used in breastfeeding women only if, according to the doctor's assessment, the benefits to the mother outweigh the potential risks to the baby.
In animal studies, some medicines such as sertraline have been shown to reduce semen quality. This may theoretically affect fertility, but no effect on fertility has been observed in humans so far.
Driving and operating machinery
Psychotropic medicines such as sertraline may affect the ability to drive or operate machinery. Therefore, do not drive or operate machinery until you know how this medicine affects your ability to perform these tasks.
