Specific serotonin reuptake inhibitors have been associated with extrapyramidal dysfunction manifesting as parkinsonism, dystonia, tremor, and akathisia. Here, we describe a old female patient with a diagnosis of moderate depressive episode who developed tremor with sertraline in the absence of concurrent prescription of medications, which have potential action on the dopaminergic system and whose symptoms resolved after the drug was discontinued.
