Hi to you all I'm new to this forum so please bare with me. I've suffered with migranes for 20+ years. On Sumertription and Propanolol for my migranes. Propanolol having helped loads. I'm peri have Benn for 9 months with a lot of the symptoms mainly with the migranes, accident reflux and mood swings think this is why the doctor put me on Sertraline which is coming up for my 4th week, I do feel a lot better BUT do these two tablets go ok together? Sertraline and Propanolol? Well......for two weeks on and off mainly on my right side of my head more like a painful headache which can last all day with this I have no energy feel sick with a painful stomach? I don't know what it could b? I have googled my symptoms even trying anxioty!. Does anyone take these medications at all ? It comes and goes. Cheers.

    Hi

    I take almotriptan, propranolol and sertraline, no problems encountered. It's early days for you if you have just started on the sertraline, give it some time but if worried see a pharmacist or your GP for advice. X

      Hi Tezes, I did ask the pharmisist, that was my first question to her told her that I also take Propanolol (for migranes) as well as sumertription(also for migranes) as well as acid reflux tablets!!!. Just hang me upside Dow and you'll hear me rattle!!!!!!!!. She said it was ok, take Propanolol first then 1-2hours later the Sertraline, had no problems @first just tired then 2weeks ago started with the pain on the right side of my head with painful tummy and feeling sick? Thinking it was probably side effects which have read the sheet but couldn't see this, googled also had a response off someone saying it sounds like anxioty? I have never experienced this so I googled this and did a anxioty test which proved with my symptoms I have not got this. I'm ok today I know it could b a number of things it's just trying to pinpoint what it is. This is an excellent site and explanations from other really help? Is it interference with the two tablets ? Who knows! But I must say I feel a lot better taking Sertraline than I did 4weeks ago with me being peri my mood swings were absolutely terrible, I had 7 weeks of the schools off and the thought of these with my kids sent me through the roof. Luckily I do work and this medication has worked.
