Sertraline (Zoloft) and alcohol

[2022Mum1]

I haven’t drunk since been on these but I have an event coming up and would like to have a glass of wine to celebrate. I would have been on them for a month by the time of the event. Can I safely do this? Is it best I miss a dose on that day?

Do not miss a dose!

I always found drinking fine on them, though did find I’d be drunker quicker :)

You don't need to miss a dose.

Alcohol isn't recommend as it can make you feel depressed.

Don’t miss a dose.
Do you have to have alcohol? When I was newly on antidepressants and didn’t want to drink, I’d just say I was on antibiotics.

I have drunk occasionally on Sertraline. The first few times I got very drunk on 1 or 2. Then since then either it's normal or it makes me all jittery and anxious the next day. I've stopped because of that.

I’ve been on them for years and it’s never been a problem having a drink on them.
