Sertraline - run out!

Yikes! I can't believe I've done this...

On Sertraline 100mg every morning, for a few years now.

Due to extenuating circumstances I didn't manage to pick up my prescription yesterday, and took my last one yesterday.

So will not be able to take another till Monday.

Is this bad / will it affect me / anything I should know or do? Would greatly appreciate any advice Smile

Is your pharmacy not open? Most are open half day Saturday.

If not you could go to a large pharmacy and ask for emergency tablets to tide you over until Monday.

I collect my scripts from the dispensary in the GP surgery, which isn't open today.

Good point re large pharmacy - I didn't know that was an option. Thank you...

111 may be able to give you an emergency prescription or code to collect it elsewhere.

WTAS about getting an emergency prescription. If you don’t manage to get it you’ll likely feel a bit nauseous and brain zappy by Monday

Thanks all - local pharmacy gave me an emergency stash, whew!
