People taking citalopram, fluoxetine or sertraline have been advised to take additional care during hot weather. UKHSA warns that some commonly prescribed medicines can change how effectively the body cools itself or maintains fluid levels.

The message is not a drug recall or an instruction to stop treatment. It is a reminder to recognise unusual sweating, dehydration and heat-related illness early while continuing medication exactly as prescribed.
