Brief Answer:
Take anadin which contains paracetamol.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
Anadin can contain different painkillers such paracetamol, ibuprofen, aspirin and caffeine.
You can write me the type of anadin you have or a photo of the package and I will tell you what it contains.
It is good that you use anadin which contains paracetamol because the others containing aspirin and ibuprofen are not recommended because taken with sertraline it can cause bleeding.


Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
