I've been off sertraline for 3 days now can I drink tea that has 5htp in ?

Hi Dave,

The question you are asking is whether it has completely drained out of your body after 3 days and whether your nody has readjusted. You can look on sites like Drugs.com about the half life of this medication to see if it should have left your system but whether your body has completely readjusted may be more complicated.

I think you would be do well asking a pharmacist about this as they understand these medications better than our GP's do. They can probably tell you whether this is safe.
