Can changing sertraline brand have an effect on MH?

My usually brand of sertraline has been changed by pharmacist this month, and I’ve been feeling a lot more anxious for a few days since starting. I assumed they were all the same- but do different brands work differently? Any knowledge appreciated, it would be to know I wasn’t having a relapse and it was just the pills!

It's like buying paracetamol, doesn't matter which you buy, same thing in different packaging.
Medications that do matter which brand eg lithium & ADHD medications are prescribed by brand.

Ah damn, I had thought that would be the case but felt so much worse since taking these! Must be something else
