Common Questions and Answers about Sertraline loss of appetite

Avatar f tn Thanks for the feedback Carmen. My appetite is completely normal now and has been for a month or two. I've only read that weight loss is a result of decreased appetite so I'm questioning if my cotinuous weightloss is related to my new diet. My initial decrease in appetite could have reduced the size of my stomach, therefore keeping me from eating excessively. Going from excessive eating of bad foods to portioned nutritious natural foods could make a big difference.
Avatar f tn m thinking the initial loss of appetite contributed by possibly decreasing the capacity of my stomach, therefore making it difficult to eat excessively (which I used to do).

But any time you change medication or your dosage and are concerned about something....give your prescribing doctor a quick call. This is when they expect and need to hear from us on how we're doing. Your doctor is always your best resource.
Avatar m tn A common symptom of that condition is a loss of sexual feeling. Diabetes can also cause loss of sensation during sex. Have your blood sugar levels been checked? Has anyone given you a glucose tolerance test? If you have had an injury or surgery to your back or spine in the past, this could also account for possible nerve damage. A simple reflex test can determine if you have any nerve damage in your penis.
Avatar f tn Hi,use of sertraline for more than 6 months is associated with weight gain,but the incidence is very less and that too not significant.Whereas topomax causes weight loss. Please consult doctor before quitting sertraline as withdrawl symptoms are quite common.

Avatar f tn 3 days later I crashed- anxiety and worry, chest tightness, stomach issues, no appetite and back to 2-3 hours of sleep a night even with increasing trazadone to 100 mg. I called my doctor and was told to increase sertraline to 100 mg. I went to 75 mg for 3 days, then 100 mg for last 5 days. I still feel terrible. How could I have had significant improvement at 2-3 weeks and now be back to how I was before starting sertraline?
Avatar m tn I have been feeling constantly tired, apathetic and despondent. My psychiatrist prescribed a starting dose of sertraline of 50mg/day. Since starting the sertraline again i have been suffering from physiological anxiety symptoms such as a tight throat, lump in throat, trouble swallowing and breathing, etc. Is there an existing drug interaction between Sertraline and Buspirone and/or Mirtazapine ? Or can a person's toleration of a drug change over time?
Avatar m tn Anxiety can cause a loss of appetite, but when you actually begin to lose weight and must force yourself to eat, it's time to see your doctor. Which you will be doing tomorrow and can discuss all your concerns with him at that time. You didn't mention if you were on any medication for your anxiety, but some of the benzos and AD's out there do cause loss of appetite and weight. If you ARE on meds, a simple change may be all that is required to fix this.
Avatar f tn Hi,i m 6 wks pregnant.i m observing all normal symtoms of first trimister except loss of appetite.i have heard that during this period women feel crazy about eating.but in my case it seems opposite effect.i have no intrest in taking meals.wud anyone help???
Avatar f tn Lack of appetite is normal. I had on and off with both of my pregnancies. Just eat small snacks throughout the day. Also if your Dr is not concerned about how big you are you likely don't have a problem. I didn't show till about 25 weeks and I only looked about 7 months pregnant when I was 9 and my MIL swore my son wouldn't even be 7 pounds but he was a full 8 Pounds 6 Ounces. A large part of it is how tall you are how you are built and how the baby is sitting.
Avatar f tn m in the 12th week of my pregnancy and it is only in the last two weeks that I have started eating properly. I experienced severe loss of appetite initially due to fatigue and morning sickness! Everyone around is asking me to ensure that I eat my full! Hope.the initial loss of appetite would not have affected the growth of the baby!
Avatar f tn My name is Crystal. I'm in my 3rd pregnancy and i have loss of appetite. I don't feel hungry at all, and i have to force myself to eat. And when i do eat, i only eat like 3 spoons full of whatever I'm eating. Does that seem normal? Had anybody else had this problem?
569458 tn?1221392419 Yeah everyones different but, everyone seems to have a major loss of appetite. On day 7 I was forcing a little bit of toast, and bland foods down, but everything tasted horrible for about 2 weeks. I lost 15lbs but, it caused me to go to ER b/c my potasssium levels were very low. So they gave me a magnesium IV and a 10 day supply of potassium pills. After that I was eating anything and everything in site....lol.
