Posso prendere Boots one-a-day sollievo per il raffreddore da fieno e allergia e Sertralina insieme?

Perché succede

Both medicines affect the central nervous system. Sertraline is an antidepressant (SSRI) and the active ingredient in Boots One-A-Day Hayfever Relief (loratadine) is an antihistamine. While loratadine is a 'non-drowsy' antihistamine, it can still cause mild sedation in some people, which is increased when combined with the effects of sertraline.

It is generally safe to take these together, but you should be cautious. See how the combination affects you before driving or operating machinery. If you feel excessively sleepy or dizzy, speak to your pharmacist about switching to a different hayfever treatment or adjusting the timing of your doses.

Sindrome serotoninergica

Do not take sertraline with other medicines that increase serotonin (such as St John’s Wort or certain strong painkillers like tramadol) as this can cause a life-threatening reaction.

Aumento del rischio di sanguinamento

Sertraline increases your risk of internal bleeding, especially if you also take aspirin, ibuprofen, or blood-thinning medications like warfarin.

Drowsiness and alcohol interaction

While loratadine is generally non-drowsy, combining it with sertraline or alcohol can increase the risk of sleepiness, which may affect your ability to drive or use machinery safely.

Alcol

It is recommended to avoid drinking alcohol while taking sertraline. Alcohol can increase the sedative effects of the medication, making you feel more drowsy or dizzy, and may worsen the symptoms of your condition.

Succo di pompelmo

Evita di bere grandi quantità di succo di pompelmo. Il pompelmo contiene composti che possono aumentare i livelli di sertralina nel sangue, il che potrebbe aumentare il rischio di effetti collaterali.
