Patients taking various treatments frequently report galactorrhoea as a side effect. Psychotropic drugs, especially neuroleptics, are among the treatments most likely to cause this effect. Conventional tricyclic antidepressants rarely cause galactorrhea. The advent of new selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressants purported to reduce such side effects. We report the clinical case of a patient with galactorrhoea on Sertraline as well as our therapeutic approach in light of data from recent scientific literature.
