Is this the "correct" thing to do?

A few days ago I came down with a cold. I've been on Sertraline 100mg for about 5 months. As far as I'm aware, it could be dangerous to mix sertraline and (day/ny)quil, so I decided to stop taking the Sertraline until I get over this cold, to allow me to take (day/ny)quil. I don't think I've had any negative consequences the few times I've had them within the same day, but I wanted to be safe.

Is this the "correct" thing to do, or should I be handling the situation differently? And if so, what would you recommend?

(Correct is in quotation marks because there is almost always multiple "correct" ways to do anything, and what works for one person may not work for another)
