Oromandibular dystonia associated with sertraline in an adolescent patient
Özet
Oromandibular dystonia associated with sertraline in an adolescent patient Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are widely prescribed to treat a variety of psychiatric disorders. Sertraline is a relatively selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor with some dopamine reuptake inhibitor activity. The most common side effects of sertraline are sleepiness, nervousness, increased sweating, somnolence, insomnia, dizziness, nausea, tremor, skin rash, dyspepsia, loss of appetite, headache, diarrhea, abnormal ejaculation, dry mouth, and weight loss. Extrapyramidal side effects associated with sertraline have been very rarely reported. We here report a case of oromandibular dystonia secondary to sertraline use in an adolescent patient. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of dystonia associated with sertraline in an adolescent patient.
