Sertraline has a potent and selective inhibitory action on CNS neuronal reuptake of 5-HT resulting in increased 5-HT concentrations at the synaptic clefts, leading to sustained activity at the postsynaptic receptor sites and improvement of depression. Reduction of serotonin turnover (in brain) also contributes to its action. Its long half-life allows once daily admin.

Serum levels may be reduced by carbamazepine. Concurrent use with dihydroergotamine or linezolid may lead to serotonin syndrome. May increase serum levels of lamotrigine and risk of toxicity. May increase serum levels of olanzapine, pimozide, risperidone, methadone, clozapine and amiodarone. Plasma levels may be increased by cimetidine and ritonavir. May increase the anticoagulant activity of warfarin and acenocoumarol. Potentially Fatal: Concomitant admin with MAOIs can result in serious serotonin syndrome.
