Zoloft (sertraline): Zoloft (sertraline) can be requested as an oral concentrate that contains 10mg /ml of zoloft (sertraline). It must be diluted & mixed prior to use. The oral solution contains 12% alcohol. In general - scored medications can be crushed - but would check with pharmacist for confirmation.
