Sertraline change of brand question
Posted , 4 users are following.
I have been on sertraline for a year or so. took a long time to work but seems to have helped me. i have had a couple of changes of brand and then seem to have only had aurobindo for the last 6 months. Now i have been given Ranbaxy. i have read that some people could not tolerate this brand. Anyone had a good experience with it? before i try to get them changed ( not sure if pharmacy will be that keen to do that however).....!!

Not everyone reacts to different mfg of the zoloft. You should be fine, if you notice that it isn't working as the other you can always contact your doctor or pharmacy and tell them that you specifically want the brand that you had been on.

Thank you (again). I noticed some very negative comments about Ranbaxy which made me nervous!

Hi, i've been on Aurobindo mostly but have reacted badly to Ranbaxy twice went starting. I have thrown all my Ranbaxy in the bin and have been told by the pharmacist that i will have to ring round the chemists to try and find someone who stocks aurobindo or something else other than Ranbaxy.
When i first started Ranbaxy i thought it was all in my head and it was the anxiety coming back. I stayed on them for a few weeks and then i got Aurobindo again. I forgot how bad Ranbaxy were for me until i started on them again this week. After just 2 days i started to feel bad again. Been back on Aurobindo 2 days and feeling better already.
If you do some research although the active Setraline Chloride should be the same, the filler and coating ingredients vary and can produce side effects symptomatic of anxiety etc. I'm never going back to Ranbaxy again
