Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi there ~

You will find more information about bipolar on the national library of medicine's website and the weblink is:

http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/bipolardisorder.html

Sertraline is a mood elevator or an antidepressant. I would think that your daughter might need a mood stabilizer. However I advise you to consult a psychiatrist qualified in this area so as to find the right medications for your daughter. I hope this helped.

Take care and have a lovely day!
