Sertraline double dose

[Guest Hockey30]

Hi guys, hooe you all had a nice christmas. This may be a bit of a silly question, but I have ran out of Sertraline without realizing and I was wondering if anyone knew whether I would be safe in taking 2 lots of 50mg to equal a 100mg? I was on 50 a couple of months back and so I have some left. I am now on 100mg. I would go down to the pharmacy to stock up but I am pretty sure it ia closed today.

Any advice would be great. Cheers

if you've ran out of 100mg and only have 50mg then taking two 50mg is fine. i've done that before when chemist only had 50mg

Yes, that would be absolutely fine. You're not taking a double dose there - just your recommended dose in two pills instead of one. I've had to do this myself with several different medications in the past. It's always a bit difficult with meds over Christmas when the doctors' and pharmacies are closed - I try to make sure I've got enough in supply before the Christmas period.
