1. What is Sertraline Krka and what is it used for

The active substance of Sertraline Krka is sertraline. Sertraline belongs to a group of medications called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs); these medications are used to treat depression and/or anxiety disorders.

Sertraline Krka may be used to treat:

  • depression and prevention of depression relapse (in adults),
  • social anxiety disorder (in adults),
  • post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) (in adults),
  • panic disorder (in adults),
  • obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) (in adults, children, and adolescents aged 6-17 years).

Depression is a disease characterized by symptoms of sadness, difficulty sleeping, or loss of joy in life.
OCD and panic disorder are anxiety-related diseases with symptoms of persistent anxiety due to persistent thoughts (obsessions) that cause repetitive rituals (compulsive actions).
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a condition that may occur after a traumatic experience and is characterized by symptoms similar to depression and anxiety. Social anxiety disorder (social phobia) is an anxiety-related disease. It is characterized by a feeling of intense anxiety or stress 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 worrying about potentially embarrassing behavior).
The doctor has decided that this medication is suitable for treating the patient's disease.
The patient should consult their doctor if they are unsure why they are taking Sertraline Krka.

2. Important information before taking Sertraline Krka

When not to take Sertraline Krka

  • If the patient is allergic to sertraline or any of the other ingredients of this medication (listed in section 6).
  • If the patient is taking or has taken monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs, e.g., selegiline, moclobemide) or medications similar to MAOIs (e.g., linezolid). After stopping sertraline treatment, the patient should wait at least one week before starting MAOI treatment. After stopping MAOI treatment, the patient should wait at least two weeks before starting sertraline treatment.
  • If the patient is taking pimozide (a medication used to treat mental disorders, such as psychoses).

Warnings and precautions

Before starting Sertraline Krka, the patient should discuss it with their doctor or pharmacist.
Not all medications are suitable for everyone. The patient should tell their doctor if they currently have or have had any of the following conditions:

  • Seizures (epilepsy) or a history of seizures. If a seizure occurs, the patient should contact their doctor immediately.
  • A history of manic-depressive illness (bipolar affective disorder) or schizophrenia. If a manic episode occurs, the patient should contact their doctor immediately.
  • A history of thoughts of self-harm or suicide (see below - "Suicidal thoughts, worsening depression, or anxiety").
  • Serotonin syndrome. In rare cases, this syndrome may occur in patients taking certain medications at the same time as sertraline (symptoms, see section 4 "Possible side effects"). The doctor should inform the patient if they have had serotonin syndrome in the past.
  • Low sodium levels in the blood, as this may occur due to Sertraline Krka treatment. The patient should also inform their doctor about taking certain medications used to treat high blood pressure, as they may also change sodium levels in the blood.
  • Elderly patients; they may be more susceptible to decreased sodium levels in the blood (see above).
  • Liver disease; the doctor may decide to reduce the dose of Sertraline Krka.
  • Diabetes; Sertraline Krka may affect blood sugar levels, so a change in the dosage of antidiabetic medications may be necessary.
  • Bleeding disorders or a history of taking blood-thinning medications [e.g., acetylsalicylic acid ("aspirin") or warfarin] or medications that may increase the risk of bleeding, or if the patient is pregnant (see "Pregnancy").
  • Children or adolescents under the age of 18. In the case of children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years, Sertraline Krka can only be used to treat obsessive-compulsive disorder. Patients treated for this condition should be closely monitored by their doctor (see below - "Children and adolescents").
  • Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT).
  • Eye problems, such as certain types of glaucoma (increased eye pressure).
  • Heart rhythm disorders visible on an ECG, known as a prolonged QT interval.
  • Heart disease, low potassium or magnesium levels, a family history of prolonged QT interval, slow heart rate, and concurrent use of medications that prolong the QT interval.

Psychomotor restlessness (akathisia)

Sertraline treatment has been associated with the development of a condition characterized by psychomotor restlessness and a compulsion to perform movements - often with an inability to sit or stand still (akathisia). This condition usually occurs within the first few weeks of treatment. The patient should contact their doctor if they experience an increase in dose, as this may be harmful to patients with such symptoms.

Withdrawal symptoms

After stopping treatment, side effects (withdrawal symptoms) often occur, especially if treatment is stopped abruptly (see section 3 "Stopping Sertraline Krka treatment" 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 usually mild or moderate, but in some patients, they can be severe. They usually occur within the first few weeks after stopping treatment. They usually resolve on their own within two weeks, but in some patients, they may persist for longer (2-3 months or longer). If the patient decides to stop sertraline treatment, it is recommended to gradually reduce the dose over several weeks or months and consult a doctor on the best way to stop treatment.

Suicidal thoughts, worsening depression, or anxiety

Patients with depression or anxiety disorders may sometimes have thoughts of self-harm or suicide. Such thoughts or behavior may worsen at the beginning of antidepressant treatment, as these medications usually start working after two weeks, sometimes later.

The likelihood of such thoughts is higher if:

  • the patient has had suicidal thoughts or self-harm in the past;
  • the patient is a young adult; clinical trial data indicate an increased risk of suicidal behavior in people under 25 years of age with mental disorders who were treated with antidepressants. If the patient experiences suicidal thoughts or self-harm, they should immediately contact their doctor or go to the hospital. It may be helpful to inform relatives or friends about the depression or anxiety disorder and ask them to read this leaflet. The patient may ask their relatives or friends for help and ask them to inform them if they notice that the depression or anxiety has worsened or if there are any worrying changes in behavior.

Sexual dysfunction

Medications like Sertraline Krka (SSRIs or SNRIs) may cause symptoms of sexual dysfunction (see section 4). In some cases, these symptoms persisted after treatment was stopped.

Children and adolescents

Sertraline should not be used in children and adolescents under the age of 18, except for patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder. In patients under 18 years of age, there is an increased risk of side effects such as suicidal attempts, self-harm, or suicidal thoughts and hostility (mainly aggressive, defiant, and angry behavior) when using medications from this group. However, the doctor may decide to prescribe Sertraline Krka to a patient under 18 years of age if it is in the patient's best interest. If the doctor prescribes Sertraline Krka to a patient under 18 years of age and the child's caregiver wants to discuss this with the doctor, they should contact the doctor. Furthermore, if any of the above symptoms occur or worsen while taking Sertraline Krka, the doctor should be informed. Additionally, there is currently no data on the long-term safety of Sertraline Krka regarding its effects on growth, maturation, learning (cognitive function), and behavior.

Sertraline Krka and other medications

The patient should tell their doctor or pharmacist about all medications they are currently taking or have recently taken, as well as any medications they plan to take.
Some medications may affect how Sertraline Krka works or Sertraline Krka may reduce the effectiveness of other medications taken at the same time.

Taking Sertraline Krka with the following medications may cause serious side effects:

  • Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), such as moclobemide (used to treat depression) and selegiline (used to treat Parkinson's disease), as well as the antibiotic linezolid and methylene blue (a substance used to treat high methemoglobin levels in the blood). Sertraline Krka should not be taken with these medications.
  • Medications used to treat mental disorders, such as psychoses (pimozide). Sertraline Krka should not be taken with pimozide.

The patient should inform their doctor about taking any of the following medications:

  • Medications containing amphetamine derivatives [used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), excessive sleepiness, and obesity].
  • Herbal medications containing St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum). St. John's Wort may continue to work for 1 to 2 weeks.
  • Medications containing the amino acid tryptophan.
  • Medications used to treat severe pain (e.g., tramadol).
  • Buprenorphine, a medication used to treat pain or opioid addiction.

  • Medications used to treat high blood pressure, chest pain, or to regulate heart rate and rhythm (such as verapamil, diltiazem, flecainide, and propafenone).
  • Medications used to treat bacterial infections (such as rifampicin, clarithromycin, telithromycin, erythromycin).
  • Medications used to treat fungal infections (such as ketoconazole, itraconazole, posaconazole, voriconazole, fluconazole).
  • Medications used to treat HIV/AIDS and hepatitis C (protease inhibitors, such as ritonavir, telaprevir).
  • Medications used to prevent nausea and vomiting after surgery or chemotherapy (aprepitant).
  • Medications that increase the risk of changes in heart electrical activity (e.g., antipsychotic medications and antibiotics).

Taking Sertraline Krka with food, drink, and alcohol

Sertraline Krka can be taken with or without food.
The patient should not drink alcohol while taking Sertraline Krka.
The patient should not take Sertraline Krka with grapefruit juice, as it may increase the levels of sertraline in the body.

Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility

Pregnancy
If the patient is pregnant or breastfeeding, thinks they may be pregnant, or plans to have a child, they should consult their doctor or pharmacist before taking this medication.
The safety of sertraline during pregnancy has not been fully established. Sertraline can be used in pregnant women only if the doctor believes that the benefits to the mother outweigh the potential risk to the developing child.
The patient should inform their doctor and/or midwife about taking Sertraline Krka. Medications like Sertraline Krka, taken during pregnancy, especially during the last three months of pregnancy, may increase the risk of serious complications in the newborn, known as persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN), which is characterized by rapid breathing and blue discoloration. These symptoms usually occur within the first day of life. If such symptoms occur in the newborn, the patient should immediately contact their doctor and/or midwife.
The newborn may also experience other symptoms, which usually occur within the first day of life. These symptoms include:

  • breathing difficulties,
  • blue discoloration of the skin, low or high body temperature,
  • blue lips,
  • vomiting or difficulty feeding,
  • excessive tiredness, insomnia, or frequent crying,
  • stiffness or floppiness of the muscles,
  • tremors, tremors, or seizures,
  • increased reflexes,
  • irritability,
  • low blood sugar levels.

If the newborn experiences any of these symptoms or if the patient is concerned about the child's health, they should contact the midwife or doctor.
Taking Sertraline Krka at the end of pregnancy may increase the risk of severe vaginal bleeding shortly after delivery, especially if the patient has a history of bleeding disorders. If the patient is taking Sertraline Krka, they should inform their doctor or midwife so that they can provide appropriate advice.
Breastfeeding
There is evidence that sertraline is excreted into human milk. Sertraline Krka can be used in breastfeeding women if the doctor believes that the benefits to the mother outweigh the risk to the child.
Fertility
Animal studies have shown that some medications, such as sertraline, may decrease sperm quality. This effect may theoretically limit fertility, although it has not been observed in humans.

Driving and using machines

Psychotropic medications, such as sertraline, may affect the ability to drive and use machines. The patient should wait until they know how Sertraline Krka affects their ability to perform these activities.

Sertraline Krka contains sodium

The medication contains less than 1 mmol (23 mg) of sodium per dose, which means it is considered "sodium-free).
