Guidance notes

Sedating antidepressants and lithium are not acceptable for aviation duty without specific SACAA consideration. Mirtazapine and trazodone are markedly sedating; venlafaxine and duloxetine may cause dizziness and discontinuation effects; lithium requires blood-level monitoring and is disqualifying. Only certain SSRIs may be considered by SACAA on a case-by-case basis after a stable, side-effect-free period.

Alternatives are informational only. The underlying medical condition must also be assessed by a DAME — a condition can ground you even when the medicine is acceptable.
