Hiya
Have decided to take the plunge and sort myself out. Was shocked 20days ago when I plucked up the courage to visit my doctor as was suffering from a lot from anxiety & stress. I agreed to try Sertraline (50mg) as main objection is to continue working. I feel very anxious and am unable to take any time off work to try and relax. Have been taking the tablets and do not know what is normal and not. So little information with the pills.

Have lots of questions which I hope someone can help me with.
:wacko: Starting with, with last night I took some Ibuprofen for tooth ache (or maybe grinding ! Dentist recently made me aware) Within an hour I was wide awake & had really bad stomach pains / acid and butterflies. Have not slept all night, feel weak and wondering how I can get myself through work without somebody noticing or making a mistake !! Wondering if Ibuprofen is off the list while taking sertraline. And what can i take for tooch ache ?

PS Not at all computer literate ! How do people respond ?

Hi Hun never took sertraline and don't really know what it is but i do take fluoxetine (prozac) and it says on the instructions that you are not to take ibuprofen or other anti-inflammitory pills whilst taking this medication. Don't know if the same goes for your meds or not but i would check it out if i were you.

When i started my meds to anxiety i went to the pharmacy with my medication and ask the pharmacist if i could take medication for headaches.
My advice is go to the pharmacy and do the same i did or give your doctor a call.
Take care.
