I've only just been put back on 50mg sertraline after my anxiety has come back, but was wondering if it is okay to still take the kalms tablets or can there be bad side effects from this? I was previously on 100mg for a year and a half, but after six months my feelings of anxiousness has come back, so went to the doctors today to be put back on them, but only on a lower dosage for now.

    Hi I don't think u can take kalms while on sertraline but I'm not 100%, I used rescue remedy and still do occasionally and the doctor and pharmacist said it's safe to take while on sertraline x

    Hi there

    yes rescue remedy is fine and I think Kalms should be ok, but I'd advise popping in and asking your pharmacist (I am one but am on maternity leave so don't have access to the usual work resources sorry!) they'll be able to check for you to be sure.  I swear by rescue remedy on anxious days, and I like the night one too. Best of luck.

      Ah thank you Sarah, I will take each day as it comes, and if I feel I need to have kalms or rescue remedy then I will use them, and take your advice on asking a pharmacist when I next go to the chemist. Hope your maternity is going well.
