Sertraline (Zoloft)
• Sertraline was associated with significantly higher rates of insomnia,
diarrhea, nausea, and decreased appetite compared with placebo.
Discontinuation rates were 39% for sertraline and 27% for placebo.
Withdrawals attributed to adverse events occurred in 9.1% of
sertraline-treated patients and in 4.7% of placebo-treated patients.
The corresponding rates of withdrawal resulting from an insufficient
therapeutic response were 0% and 4.7%, respectively.
• A double-blind placebo-controlled study evaluated sertraline in 42
Israeli military veterans with combat-induced PTSD.26 The subjects
received either sertraline (50 to 200 mg/day) or placebo for 10 weeks.
Treatment efficacy was determined by CAPS-2 and by CGI–S and CGI–I
ratings. Therapy with sertraline resulted in numeric, but not
statistically significant, improvements in CAPS-2 total severity and
symptom-cluster scores versus placebo. CGI–I responder rates were
53% for sertraline and 20% for placebo (P = 0.057).
• Thirteen percent of the sertraline group discontinued treatment
because of adverse events.
Kesimpulan

PTSD dengan gejala gangguan tidur sebaiknya

• Apabila diberikan sertralin yang memiliki efek
samping insomnia akan memperparah kondisi
pasien.
