Restarting Sertraline after 2 weeks

2025-03-15 12:59:24
A friend of mine has been on anti depressants (Sertraline 150mg) for past 4 months after being diagnosed with severe depression and she seems to be improving with the medications. Two weeks ago, she got sick with an eye infection, tonsillitis, fever cough and cold and had been taking antibiotics (Amoxiclav) and other medications and has recovered except for dry cough and a bit of cold. During these 2 weeks, she had not taken her antidepressants. She has been feeling dizzy and angsty lately and believes it's due to stopping the anti depressants. My question on her behalf is, could she restart her Sertraline 150mg tomorrow and would it be safe for her to do so or is there something else to follow before the restart?
