So after a 5 month wait to see the pdoc I'm being started on 50mg Sertraline. The question I have for you folks though is this... my pdoc knows I'm a heavy drinker and said that I should be fine to continue drinking on Sertraline but that I should cut back on it and try to wean myself off. However the pharmacist said absolutely no drinking on Sertraline. I understand that alcohol = depressant and Sertraline = antidepressant so they shouldn't really be combined...but I've been a heavy drinker for what... almost two years now? I can't just quit...

Thoughts? Opinions? Anyone been on Sertraline before that has any advice/warnings?
