SERTRALINE - advice needed!!!

5 replies

I’ve been taking Sertraline for around a month. I’ve just realised I forgot to take my tablet last night before bed. If I take it now, am I still okay to take it this evening before bed? Thanks

The leaflet advises to not catch up a dose.
In reality tho i think it'll be fine I've done it before.

If I miss a dose i don't take a catch up unless it's only a couple of hours later than usual. Usually I'm ok, I sometimes get a few "head flashes" but my mood doesn't drop.

I don’t know if it’s because I’m still fairly new on the medicine, but I woke up today and felt really bad. All my worries that had been overwhelming me last month were all back in full flow. I haven’t felt this bad for at least 2 weeks. I only realised I’d missed a tablet around half an hour after waking up so I think my mood must be due to the missed dose.

I wouldn't take it until the next one is due as I was very sensitive to it and I would have been spannered with the extra sertraline in my system. Missing some is not the end of the world.

Thank you... I’ll just hold off then. I’ll just have to try to power through today despite the way I’m feeling 😔
