A member asked:
Is easy bruising common with sertraline use?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible, not common: Although not common bruising can occur with Sertraline and most of the antidepressants in the SSRI family. The bruising is related to an effect of the SSRIs on the platelets in your body causing them not function in their normal manner. This effect is usually reversible when the medication is stopped.
