There are more minor neurotoxicities related to their interactions. You may want to raise the point to your doctor and ask opininion.

I wonder if the: Zoloft (sertraline) is being used for anxiety as i see that listed under conditions. That might make more sense then adding in zoloft (sertraline) for depression. There is often concern that antidepressants could raise risk for mania/ hypomania.
