Any advice please? 8weeks on 50mg sertraline

Posted , 7 users are following.

hello my good friends

I have been taking sertraline for 8weeks now and I went to go get my new batch of tablets today and they're in a completely different box and branding, I know this may sound stupid to some of you but I don't like tablets it took me over a week to pluck up the courage to take my first tablet when I got put on them, I have got used to taking them now and now I face this dilemma of the new packaging and branding even the box is smaller than my usual ones, does this mean I will have to go through all the side effects again and feel really bad again, any words and advice will be appreciated

Thankyou all

    i also still haven't felt any great difference and I explain I feel worse so hopefully this new branding scenario could be a good one as if there is differences in brands who knows this one could be the one that sorts me out and gives me my life back from this crippling illness, I will update everyone on how it goes

      I had to get mine from the hospital at my antenatal clinic so I know the brand will be changed next month as I will be getting them from my doctors so my nerves are gone just praying I don't have side effects again as my baby will be here the 2nd Feb 😁
