Sertraline

Hi has anyone ever tried a different make of sertraline and has felt worse I have been fine on lustral tried a different brand as they didn't have any in and I've had the worst headache for days now thanks in advance x

i have a dirrerent 1 near everytime i get a script. no problems , i think many years ago when first generics came out they had a couple of probs ,but the regs are tight has they can be now. ask for you old 1 at the chemist but they may have bought a new batch of a different make, so thats all they have , try another chemist

Hi Rachael,

I've read that a different brand can make a difference to some people. If Lustral has been working for you, get your doctor to specify this (rather than just Sertraline) on your prescription. Check with a pharmacist if they can supply the specific brand and if not, try a different pharmacist. A bit of extra effort but hopefully you will notice the benefit.

Best wishes,

There has been to much said about generic meds , there are cool or they would not give you them . if your chasing a chemist  lusteral you will be lucky unless he got a great deal on them he wont have them , only on order by your doc has 1 member hear has.   BOTH MY LAST 2 SCRIPTS HAVE BEEN A DIFFERENT SERTRALINE
