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

Sertraline Normon contains sertraline as the active ingredient. Sertraline belongs to a group of medicines called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs); these medicines are used to treat depression and/or anxiety disorders.

Sertraline Normoncan 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 and in children and adolescents aged 6-17 years).

Depression is a clinical condition with symptoms such as feelings of sadness, inability to sleep well or enjoy life as you used to.

OCD and anxiety disorders are conditions related to anxiety, with symptoms such as being constantly worried about recurring ideas (obsessions) that lead to performing repetitive rituals (compulsions).

PTSD is a disorder that can occur after a highly traumatic emotional experience, and has some symptoms similar to depression and anxiety. Social anxiety disorder (social phobia) is an anxiety-related condition. It is characterized by feeling intense anxiety or distress in social situations (e.g., talking to strangers, public speaking, eating or drinking in front of others, or worrying about behaving in a shameful way).

Your doctor has considered that this medicine is suitable for treating your condition.

If you are not sure why you have been prescribed sertraline, you should consult your doctor.

2. What you need to know before you take Sertraline Normon

Do not take Sertraline Normon

  • If you are allergic to sertraline or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
  • If you are taking or have taken medicines called monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs, such as selegiline, moclobemide) or other medicines similar to MAOIs (such as linezolid) in the last 14 days. If you stop taking sertraline, you must wait at least 7 days before starting treatment with an MAOI. After stopping treatment with an MAOI, you must wait at least 2 weeks before starting treatment with sertraline.
  • If you are taking another medicine called pimozide (a medicine used to treat mental disorders such as psychosis).

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting treatment with Sertraline Normon.

Medicines are not always suitable for everyone. Before starting treatment with Sertraline Normon, tell your doctor if you have or have had any of the following:

  • If you have epilepsy (seizures) or a history of seizures. If you have a seizure, contact your doctor immediately.
  • If you have manic-depressive illness (bipolar disorder) or schizophrenia. If you have a manic episode, contact your doctor immediately.
  • If you have or have had thoughts of harming yourself or committing suicide (see below Thoughts of suicide and worsening of your depression or anxiety).
  • If you have serotonin syndrome. This syndrome can occur rarely when taking certain medicines at the same time as sertraline. (To see the symptoms, read section 4. Possible side effects). Your doctor will tell you if you have had this syndrome before.
  • If you have low sodium levels in your blood, as this condition may occur as a result of treatment with Sertraline Normon. You should also inform your doctor if you are taking any medication for high blood pressure, as these medications can also alter sodium levels in your blood.
  • If you are elderly, as you may be at greater risk of having low sodium levels in your blood (see above).
  • If you have liver disease; your doctor may consider that you should take a lower dose of Sertraline Normon.
  • If you have diabetes; Sertraline Normon may alter your blood sugar levels, so it may be necessary to adjust the dose of your diabetes medications.
  • If you have a history of bleeding disorders (tendency to develop bruises), or if you are pregnant (see section Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility) or have been taking medications that reduce blood clotting (such as acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) or warfarin) or that may increase the risk of bleeding.
  • If you are a child or adolescent under 18 years of age. Sertraline Normon should only be used to treat children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). If you are going to be treated for this disorder, your doctor will want to monitor you closely (see below Children and adolescents).
  • If you are receiving electroconvulsive therapy (ECT).
  • If you have any eye disorder, such as certain types of glaucoma (increased intraocular pressure).
  • If you have been told you have an abnormality in the graph of your heart that is obtained after an electrocardiogram (ECG), known as prolongation of the QT interval.
  • If you have heart disease, have low potassium or magnesium levels, a family history of QT prolongation, low heart rate, or are taking medications that prolong the QT interval.

Restlessness/ Akathisia

The use of sertraline has been associated with unpleasant restlessness and a need to move, often accompanied by an inability to sit or stand still (akathisia). This occurs more often during the first few weeks of treatment. Increasing the dose may be harmful, so if you develop these symptoms, you should contact your doctor.

Withdrawal symptoms

Side effects related to stopping treatment (withdrawal symptoms) are common, especially if treatment is stopped abruptly (see section 3. If you stop taking Sertraline Normon and section 4. Possible side effects). The risk of experiencing withdrawal symptoms depends on the duration of treatment, dose, and rate at which the dose is reduced. Generally, these symptoms are mild or moderate. However, in some patients, they can be severe. These symptoms usually occur during the first few days after stopping treatment. In general, these symptoms usually resolve on their own and normally disappear within two weeks. In some patients, they can last longer (2-3 months or more). It is recommended that when stopping treatment with sertraline, the dose should be gradually reduced over a period of several weeks or even months, and you should always agree with your doctor on the best way to stop treatment.

Thoughts of suicide and worsening of your depression or anxiety

If you are depressed and/or have anxiety disorders, you may sometimes have thoughts of harming yourself or committing suicide. This may increase at the beginning of treatment with antidepressants, due to the fact that these medications take time to work, which is usually a few weeks but can sometimes be longer.

This is more likely to happen

  • If you have previously had thoughts of suicide or self-harm.
  • If you are a young adult. There is information from clinical trials that shows an increased risk of suicidal behavior in adults under 25 years of age with psychiatric disorders who are being treated with an antidepressant.

If you have thoughts of harming yourself or committing suicide at any time, contact your doctor or go to the hospital immediately.

It may be helpful for you to explain to a family member or close friend that you are depressed or have an anxiety disorder and ask them to read this leaflet. You can also ask them to tell you if they think your depression or anxiety is getting worse, or if they are concerned about changes in your behavior.

Sexual problems

Some medicines in the same group as Sertraline Normon (called SSRIs) may cause symptoms of sexual dysfunction (see section 4). In some cases, these symptoms persist after stopping treatment.

Children and adolescents

Normally, sertraline should not be used in the treatment of children and adolescents under 18 years of age, except in the case of patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Patients under 18 years of age have a higher risk of adverse effects such as suicidal attempts, thoughts of self-harm or suicide (suicidal ideas), and hostility (mainly aggression, confrontational behavior, and anger) when they are being treated with this class of medications. Nevertheless, your doctor may decide to prescribe Sertraline Normon to a patient under 18 years of age if they consider it is in the best interest of the patient. If your doctor has prescribed Sertraline Normon and you are under 18 years of age and wish to discuss this decision, please go back to your doctor. You must inform your doctor if any of the symptoms mentioned above appear or worsen when you are taking Sertraline Normon. The long-term effects on safety and related to growth, maturity, and learning (cognitive development) and behavioral development of sertraline were evaluated in a long-term study in over 900 children aged 6 to 16 years who were monitored for a period of 3 years. In general, the results of the study showed that children treated with sertraline developed normally, except for a slight increase in weight in those treated with a higher dose.

Taking Sertraline Normon with food, drinks, and alcohol

Sertraline Normon tablets can be taken with or without food.

Alcohol consumption should be avoided while being treated with Sertraline Normon.

Do not take sertraline in combination with grapefruit juice, as it can increase the levels of sertraline in your body.

Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine.

The safety of sertraline in pregnant women has not been fully established. If you are pregnant, sertraline will only be given to you if your doctor considers that the benefit to you outweighs any possible risk to the developing baby.

If you take Sertraline Normon tablets in the final stages of pregnancy, there may be an increased risk of heavy vaginal bleeding shortly after delivery, especially if you have a history of bleeding disorders. Your doctor or midwife should know that you are taking Sertraline Normon tablets so they can advise you.

When taken during pregnancy, especially during the last 3 months, medicines like Sertraline Normon may increase the risk of a serious condition in babies called persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN), which makes the baby breathe faster and have a bluish appearance. These symptoms usually start within the first 24 hours after birth. If this happens to your baby, contact your midwife and/or doctor immediately.

Your newborn baby may have other conditions, which usually appear within the first 24 hours after birth. The symptoms include:

  • Difficulty breathing.
  • Bluish or too hot or cold skin.
  • Bluish lips.
  • Vomiting or feeding problems.
  • Excessive tiredness, inability to sleep, or excessive crying.
  • Stiffness or decreased muscle tone.
  • Tremors, restlessness, or seizures.
  • Increased reflexes.
  • Irritability.
  • Low blood sugar levels.

If your baby has any of these symptoms at birth, or you are concerned about your baby's health, consult your doctor or midwife for advice.

There are indications that sertraline passes into breast milk. Therefore, sertraline can only be used in breastfeeding women if the doctor considers that the benefit outweighs any possible risk to the child.

In animal studies, it has been seen that some medicines like sertraline may reduce sperm quality. Theoretically, this could affect fertility; however, the impact on human fertility has not yet been determined.
