Depsert 25 mg tablets contain sertraline as its active component. Sertraline belongs to the selective serotonin receptor inhibitors class of medicines, a part of antidepressants (medicines used to tr

eat depression). It is used to treat depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic disorder and anxiety. Depsert 25 mg tablets should be taken at a dose and for a duration as directed by your doctor. The medicine is usually started at a lower dose, and gradually the dose is increased. Continuous monitoring of the response to the medicine and side effects is done before deciding the optimum dose of the medicine. You should not abruptly stop taking the medicine as it can cause withdrawal symptoms like restlessness, anxiety, headache, palpitations and sleep disturbances. Some of the most common side effects of the medicine are nausea, indigestion, decrease in appetite, sweating, tremors, diarrhoea and sleep disturbances. You may experience a decrease in sexual desire and delayed ejaculation. Most of the symptoms are mild and should go away within a few days if using the medicine. However, if these side effects bother you, you should consider consulting a doctor. Inform your doctor about all the medicines you take before starting this medicine. This would prevent any adverse interaction between the medicines. You should also tell your doctor about all the pre-existing conditions that you may have, like epilepsy, diabetes, kidney, and liver diseases. You should not take Depsert 25 mg tablets if you are already taking Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) like Tranylcypromine, Selegiline. Take Depsert 25 mg tablets at a particular time of the day. This will help replenish the decrease in chemical substances in the nerve endings.
