- Abstract
Antipsychotics are the drugs that most frequently cause prolactinemia among the psychiatric drug groups. When prolactin eleva tion is mentioned, it is generally considered as a side effect related to antipsychotics. However, prolactin elevation is also observed in the clinic due to the use of antidepressants. It is important to identify prolactinoma via drugs and to review treatment options. In our case, prolactin elevation of patient with pituitary adenoma was reported after the use of sertraline. Although the patient had aden oma, sertraline was found to be the cause of elevated prolactin. In a patient presenting with elevated prolactin, medications and their effect on prolactin levels are among the first issues to be evaluated.
