Specializes in Gastroenterology

No problem : SSRI's, such as Lustral or Zoloft, (sertraline) do not interfere with the common drugs for Gerd. I would recommend adopting anti-reflux measures. In addition, you might start with ranitidine 150 mg twice a day for about two weeks, to see if that helps. If that does not work, I would see your doctor to get started on the long-term medicine. Good luck.
