Hi I have been on Sertline for 6 months.on 100mg .
for the first 5 months I was constantly on the same branded drug and same colour ( white) ......
tHEN when a new perscription came for me to pick up......it was a different brand and different color(blue).....we'll I didn't take good to this brand nor the colour, part way through the 2nd pack I gave in I couldn't take anymore of the here diode side effects I was on with this brand
i called into my local chemist and had words with the Pharmacest and told him about the side effects I was having I was told to immediately stop taking this brand and put on a emergency pack of another brand ( white tablets) until he could bring in another named brand for me.
so as off tomorrow I start my new pack with what he said is a good brand name
called LUSTRAL which r white tabs!.
has or who take theses please? Are they good I know everyone is different and we all have different views on different brands ....just want some feedback on these tablets whether good or bad!.. Just want your views...the last pack I had had a bad reaction to... With constant Diariaha throbbing head,very anxios,irritable feeling very sick.
is this a good brand? Feedback please of anyone good /bad? How long have you been on this brand? Just abit of feedback..many thanks.
Hi hun I've been on sertraline for ages lustral are exactly the same as sertraline u will b fine I have never been given blue ones I'm 5wks in on increase to 125 still feel a bit anxious but not as bad as was x
Hi Shelley, i started off on Sertraline White tablets and had the usual side effects and was leveling off ok after about 5 to 6 weeks and then my second pack were blue and i havent felt very good on these at all. so im going to make sure i ask for the white ones next time. How can they be so different, it doesnt make sense to me?
Hi
i have been taking the branded sertraline called Lustral, for two years, some generic brands will have slight differences so I have always stuck to Lustral. Because most GP's will only prescribe the drug not a particular brand (branded drugs are more expensive) you potentially could be getting a different generic unbranded sertraline each time you pick up your prescription. Therefore you just need either the pharmacist on your side as yours seem to be or stick with a pharmacist that always have Lustral on their shelves.
good luck
Hey....
pit is worrying when you get a different brand and mostly a diff colour...and being BLUE......
like I said I was on Sertline for 5 months same brand etc I was FINE....all through.......
then I had a different brand and they were BLUE!!!!!'
i didn't take well at all to these......every body knows their body and when alarm bells started going off with terrible side effects I was getting.....I simply couldn't take anymore...
i spoke to the pharmasest and because they were a different colour....some DO HAVE DIFFERENT ingredients in them...
pic you don't take very well to the pack you are given simply ask for another brand off the chemist
So just listen to your body.
