Interaction Found

Taking sertraline with levothyroxine may cause your body to need more levothyroxine. This can lead to heart rhythm problems and nervous system overstimulation.

What to do: Tell your doctor you take both medicines. Your doctor may check your heart rate and blood pressure, and might adjust your levothyroxine dose. Don't stop either medicine on your own.
