Can I consume alcohol on sertaline?

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hi, I've been taking Sertraline for over a month now and it was rough in the first few weeks but now I'm not experiencing anything too bad at all.

When I researched online if I could drink on Sertraline I got a lot of mixed messages, I'm wondering if anyone here drinks Alcohol on this medication and if it's safe. If so what should I know?

    Hello,

    I used to be on Sertraline,

    I could drink on them, but not alot for a start. Your body has to get use to it.

    Just take it steady. X
