Trying to find out if other medicines such as Omeprazole, Bendroflume or Amlodipine are the cause of having to go excessively or is it the sertraline.
Does sertraline make you go to toilet a lot during night?

By "going to the toilet" do you mean urinating or having a bowel movement? Omeprazole is well known for causing loose BM's. Amlodipine can cause frequent urination and urination at night. Bendroflume is a diuretic so if you are urinating a lot, this one is probably your culprit. Take it as early in the AM as you can and try to avoid fluids two hours before bedtime if you can. If you get thirsty at night, take small sips or suck on small ice chips so you dont take in so much fluid to run right out again. Many people diurese at night because when you lay down, the heart has an easy time pumping and is able to get rid of the excess fluid building up in the lower extremities.

Thank you Dzoobaby, urinating , getting up nearly every hour but only passing a drip on most occasions, trying to find out which of the drugs are causing this, will certainly take on board your answer.
