I thought I had a pack left BUT I haven't!!!

so for now till Monday 

will going for these days with no Sertline do myselft any damage?

can someone recommend anything I can be taking until I can get my next dose in the week?

has this happened to anyone Obviosly a mistake I really did think I had a pack in my kitchen cupboard!!

i take these tablets as I'm in peri and my mood swings were all over the place...Sertline have helped me emmensley. 

I have not ever done this and don't know if or how my body's going to react?

and because I have been on this for 11 nhs everyday at 100mg will it do any harm ? Also I have th same brand each time I may have to wait longer for them to come in? Any advice please?

    You can go to a chemist and get an emergency presription. I think they give you a weeks worth for the price of a normal prescription. Go to the place that normally dispenses them and they'll be able to. Don't leave until they do.

    You can't not have them or you will suffer some quite extreme side effects.

    Good luck. Let us know that you are safe

    I forget my repeat prescription every time. I have a terrible memory. Nothing happens to me if I don't take any for a few days. Got a head ache once but thats about it. It needs more than a few days to get out of your system. Don't stress you will be fine. I always am

    Hi Shelly, I done this last weekend!! I called NHS direct which the number for is 111 and they could access my medical records so they prescribed me with 2 sertraline tablets until Monday when I could call the doctors and get more. They sent the prescription to my local pharmacy and I picked them up that day - I didn't have to pay either because it wasn't a full prescription! If I was you I'd do this to save the worry or going a couple of days without them and the possible side effects that might happen. Hope this helps!
