Pharmachologic effect

Pharmacological action - antidepressant.

Dosing and Administration

Inside, 1 time per day (morning or evening).

Adult treatment for depression and obsessive-compulsive disorder: The usual dose is 50 mg 1 time per day.

To reduce the frequency and severity of side effects in patients with panic disorders or post-traumatic stress disorders, it is recommended to start treatment with a dose of 25 mg once a day and after 1 week increase the dose to 50 mg once a day.

With an unsatisfactory therapeutic effect and good tolerability, the daily dose can be increased by 50 mg for several weeks to a maximum daily dose of 200 mg. Therapeutic effect may occur within 7 days. However, usually for a full manifestation of antidepressant effect it takes from 2 to 4 weeks. With obsessive-compulsive disorder, the therapeutic effect develops even more slowly. For maintenance therapy, the minimum effective dose should be given.

Children aged 13-18 years with obsessive-compulsive disorder: Stimuloton® should be prescribed starting at a dose of 50 mg / day. For children with obsessive-compulsive disorder at the age of 6-12 years, an initial dose of 25 mg per day is recommended, which after 1 week can be increased to 50 mg per day. With an unsatisfactory therapeutic response, you can then increase the dose weekly at 50 mg / day to a maximum daily dose of 200 mg. However, in order to avoid an overdose with a dose increase of more than 50 mg, it should be borne in mind that the body weight in children is less than in adults. With prolonged maintenance therapy, the lowest effective doses should be given.

Special Groups

There is no need for dose adjustment for elderly patients.

Patients with impaired liver function require special attention in the treatment of sertraline. If the liver function is severely impaired, the dose of the drug should be reduced or the intervals between doses should be increased.
