Bupropion can increase the amount of sertraline in your body. This happens because bupropion affects how your body breaks down sertraline. Too much sertraline can cause side effects like shakiness, confusion, or rapid heartbeat.

What to do: Tell your doctor you take both medications. Your doctor may need to lower your sertraline dose or monitor you more closely. Do not stop either medication without talking to your doctor first.
