clinical pharmacist at Sedgwick, believes there’s a riskier type, though. “Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, such as sertraline and paroxetine, can cause hyperhidrosis and stroke, but the risk is a lot lower compared to older agents such as tricyclic antidepressants ,” Hammoud said. She explained “hyperhidrosis” is the fancy word for “excessive sweating.” Some examples of TCAs include Pamelor, Elavil and Anafranil.Ploesser agreed, adding other medication types that cause concern, too.
To start, older folks. “While everyone needs to be careful to avoid dehydration and heat stroke, the risks are relatively higher among older adults as they often metabolize and excrete medications at slower rates,” Ploesser said. “Older adults, in general, are also more likely to be on a greater number of medications for their physical and mental health concerns, and polypharmacy is also a significant risk factor.
Gandhi said blood pressure medications are one type that can cause particularly high risks. She added being outside in the sun and heat doesn’t help, either. “Depending on your treatment, it may be best to avoid being outside in high heat altogether, and it’s worth consulting your doctor,” she said.of those taking antidepressants experience excessive sweating as a side effect,” Gandhi said.
