Welche Lebensmittel sollte man mit Sertralin vermeiden?

Hallo

Ich nehme Sertralin und habe vor einiger Zeit erfahren, dass man Grapefruitsaft vermeiden sollte, weil das irgendwie die Wirkung des Medikaments verstärken würde oder so.

Ich finde das ziemlich krass, weil ich nicht gedacht habe, dass ein “natürliches Lebensmittel” sowas bewirken kann.

Mich interessiert, ob es sonst noch Lebensmittel gibt, die man vermeiden sollte, wenn man Sertralin nimmt.

It is actually that certain foods and beverages can enhance the effect of sertralin, including grapefruit juice. This happens because certain substances in these foods and beverages can increase the intake of sertraline into the body, which can lead to the effect of the drug being stronger than expected. Apart from grapefruit juice, there are other foods and beverages that you should avoid when taking sertralin, including alcohol and certain herbal preparations. It is always advisable to consult with your doctor or pharmacist before taking Sertralin to ensure that you do not take food or drinks that can affect the effect of the drug

Sertralin is an antidepressant from the SSRI group which is approved for the treatment of depression, anxiety disorders and forced diseases. Like any antidepressant, sertralin must be taken daily in a stable dose.

Grapefruit is the only food to be dispensed with. The reason for this is that Grapefruit influences the intestinal enzyme CYP3A4. CYP3A4 is important for the metabolization of sertralin.

Furthermore, large amounts of alcohol should be dispensed with. Although studies have shown that sertralin and alcohol do not have any interactions, such studies are carried out with comparatively small amounts of both substances. Interactions at high doses of both or one of the substances can therefore not be excluded.
