GPT on Question 46, Sep 26
I take sertraline 100 mg daily. A friend gave me some tramadol for a bad tooth. Is that combination okay?No—tramadol is generally not recommended with sertraline unless a clinician specifically supervises it. Both increase serotonin, raising the risk of serotonin syndrome, and tramadol can also increase seizure risk. It is also unsafe to take someone else’s prescription.
- •Do not take the tramadol, and don’t stop sertraline abruptly.
- •If you already took it, don’t take more. Contact your pharmacist/clinician or Poison Control (U.S.: 1-800-222-1222) for individualized advice.
- •Seek emergency help now for agitation/confusion, heavy sweating, fever, diarrhea, rapid heartbeat, tremor, muscle stiffness/twitching, a seizure, severe sleepiness, or trouble breathing.
For tooth pain, arrange urgent dental care—the cause may need treatment. If normally safe for you, acetaminophen and/or ibuprofen are often preferred; check with a pharmacist if you have liver/kidney disease, ulcers, take blood thinners, are pregnant, or have other medical conditions. Avoid alcohol and sedatives.
