Zoloft
Posted: 03-05-06 17:07pm

I have been taking zoloft for my anxiety and panic for about 3 months now. I started off at 25mg and I am now on 50mg and I feel it is doing the job. My question is has anyone else had the full list of side effects from taking zoloft? Because for the last month I have had headaches everyday all day, extreme fatigue, and dry mouth. I'm going to my doctors this week, but I just wanted to know is this common? And has anyone had to come off of it because of the side effects the were having?

Someone told me that zoloft is no good because of the side effects. I heard that wellbutrin was a lot better.

Jenna,
i've been taking zoloft for anxiety for approx. 4 years. My doctor has also added wellbutrin to help with some of the side effects. It seems to be helping. Don't give up on the zoloft yet because some of the side effects will go away after a few months. Good luck :)

I agree. Zoloft has been great for me. I also take wellbutrin and it helps with some of the side affects of the zoloft.

I don't know about that. I've been on 100 mg for over 6 years and haven't had to go up. It will be different for everyone.
