JitterinessAnxiety Syndrome Developing Immediately following Initiation of Oral Administration of Sertraline

Abstract EN

Here, we report our experience with patients in whom jitteriness/anxiety syndrome developed immediately following the start of oral sertraline administration.

Administration was discontinued in these patients on day 2, and the jitteriness/anxiety syndrome improved the following day.

Jitteriness/anxiety syndrome may develop immediately following oral administration of even low doses of sertraline, and improvement can be expected if sertraline is promptly discontinued.
