Can Sertraline And Trazadone Be Taken For Watery Eyes, Sneezing And Nasal Congestion?
I take 50 mg sertraline in the a.m and 50 mg Trazadone at bed. I have some serious allergy and sinus crud going on right now and as i am relatively new to this medication I do not know what is safe to take to get some relief from the watery eyes ,sneezing and runny/ congested nose.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Decongestants such as pseudoephedrine, phenylephrine or the topical option of xylometazoline interact with trazadone with the risk of serious interaction occurring.
You may need to use normal saline drops and warm compresses to the face to help with clearing the sinuses.
You can use a non drowsy antihistamine such as loratidine.
There is a risk of interaction between sertraline and trazodone so you may want to check this with your doctor.
I hope this helps
