Description
About Cetralex 50mg Tablets
Cetralex 50mg Tablets contain Sertraline, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) and the standard starting dose for adults. Prescribed for major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, OCD, PTSD, PMDD, and social anxiety disorder. Sertraline selectively blocks the serotonin transporter (SERT), gradually elevating synaptic serotonin and restoring emotional regulation. Critical safety notes: Never combine with MAOIs (14-day washout required before/after switching). Never stop abruptly — discontinuation syndrome may occur. Teratogenicity risk — discuss with your doctor during pregnancy. Prescribing and monitoring by a psychiatrist is mandatory. Consult your doctor / prescription required.
