Common Questions and Answers about Zoloft generic pictures

zoloft

"Zoloft was a terrible drug for me, as was benzos." "For me" being the key words in that sentence.

And I know, medicines work differently for each person, I'm just wanting to get an idea of the general efficacy of antidepressants when it comes to anxiety and hear other people's stories.

Hi Lisa, I was on 150 mgs of Zoloft for many years. The total amount of time I was on Zoloft was 5 yrs before I was switched over to Celexa. Anyhow, I had NO ringing in the ears from Zoloft. None. About the main side-effect I had on Zoloft was fatique, lack of libido, constipation, lethargy, more fatique...you get the picture. Zoloft helped me with my panic attacks ,which many yrs ago I did suffer. Zoloft also helped me with my clinical depressions.

you get the picture. Had my first panic attack in 1991- was prescribed Xanax and been on it ever since. Generalized social anxiety, particularly in public speaking and freeway driving situations has gradually increased over the years, and I was prescribed Zoloft, but that just isn't doing the trick (100 mg/day). So as a recent retiree, now looking to go back to work, I need to get my meds right and get these symptoms under control.

Ok, that's to give you the picture. One thing I had progressively develop over the last 3 years is palpitations, that's skipped heart beats, they seem to come in cycle, sometimes 0, sometimes 20-30 a days (recently) and that freaks me out the most. So my doctor prescribed me some Clonazepam to first relax (Klonopin). And then to start Zoloft (Sertraline) a week later.

Since all the worrying has given me anxiety he prescribed Zoloft. Some days after I started taking them I got some more symptoms. A tight, thick feeling in my throat and back of mouth like the muscles were tense, tired and swollen. I haven't had any real swalloing or talking problems although I sometimes get an awkward feeling when swalloing and my speech feels a little thick. Could this be side effects from zoloft or is it the anxiety ?.

She is not licensed to perscribed medication however she told me that I do not need to be on Zoloft (which was perscribed by another doctor and I have been on for years) and told me to get off of it. So, unfortunately, I took her poor advice, went off Zoloft cold and had terrible side effects such as mood/mental changes, lack of sleep and weight loose.

It may be helpful to get a second opinion regarding your son's diagnosis, as treatment will always be determined by the diagnostic picture This reply is offered for general information only. Always contact your physician.

I am being treated for depression and OCD. I am currently taking 150mg of Zoloft in the morning and 50mg of Trazodone at night. At first I was only taking Zoloft and had minimal side-effects, but was having trouble sleeping so my Dr. prescribed Trazodone. Since taking the Trazodone I have been having night sweats almost every night. I wake up freezing cold and soaking wet and have to change my clothes before I can go back to sleep.

Zoloft can help a little with anxiety if the anxiety is a manifestation of depression. Zoloft (sertraline) takes aboy 4 to 6 weeks to work and most people find an effective dosage between 100 to 150Mgs a day. Some at 200Mgs a day. Is your fear of women due to a fear of catching an STD? Or is it simply because you are shy around women? As far as the anxiety and your difficulty sleeping..... Well yes there are drugs that do a much better job than Zoloft.

4,059% Zoloft: 50 mg Consumer price: $206.87 Cost of general active ingredients: $1.75 Percent markup: 11,821% Since the cost of prescription drugs is so outrageous, I thought everyone should know about this. Please read the following and pass it on. It pays to shop around. This helps to solve the mystery as to why they can afford to put a Walgreen's on every corner.

I usually stay on it for 3-6 months, gain weight, go off zoloft, lose weight, panic returns, go back on zoloft, gain weight.........etc. Get the picture? It's such a frustrating cycle. I haven't found any other SSRI or benzo that works as well as Zoloft. Ive tried Lexapro, Paxil, Celexa, Welbutrin and Buspar. Zoloft is by far the best for me. I also take Klonopin .25mg at night (I have for 3 years) and that helps me sleep almost perfectly every night.

My 14 yr old son has a diagnosis of ADHD and ODD. He is on Vyvanse. Intuniv and Zoloft. He attends a private school for children with Behavioral and Developmental Challenges. The therapist we work with has mentioned some mood disorders as well. We tried Abilify for awhile, which had increased his appetite and he has gained 25 pounds in 3 months. We took him off this medicine because of the appetite issues, as well as not seeing a big difference.

The thing about meds like Zoloft is that they generally take up to three or four weeks to reach their FULL effect, and in the meantime, weird little side effects like headaches or the burps or occasionally even a very slight increase in anxiety or whatever may occur.

His aunt takes ATIVAN and ZOLOFT - the ativan when she gets panick attacks and the zoloft for general depression. His uncle takes paxil and has been on and off it for years. His maternal side (my mother and grandmother) are anxious in general but nothing has been diagnosed. I have recently weaned myself off of Wellbutrin as I was taking it after giving birth this pregnancy and when I gave birth to my 6 yr old I took it for a few months after childbirth also. Does that help?

within 4 hours I was back to feeling the same way.. By now you get the picture.. When I started calling my doc asking for refills early, explaining the situation to him, he insisted I come in. He explained to me that no benzo could be used for long term treatment of anxiety due to addiction/tolerance issues. Tried to refer me to a psych.. He told me the psych was going to put me on anti depressants to treat the anxiety long term. Now I was all kinds of confused.

Truthfully as they understand more about how people react to medications biochemically they will know what medications might produce certain side effects and more importantly which ones might help more and what to give to people. One general thing I can say is that I know that before starting medication in general I got a comprehensive physical exam and I wondered why at the time since it was psychiatric medication.

A major life stress may or may not have occurred first. SYMPTOMS In the full blown picture, the patient suffers from deep feelings of sadness, guilt, uselessness & futility. Concentration may be impaired, & memory may suffer. A sense of losing one's mind is common. Tearfulness may be uncontrollable at times. Profound apathy/fatigue occur. Appetite disturbance may be so severe that dehydration, severe weight loss, & eventual death may occur.

And over the years, there have been various modifications of this—in general the success rate is 75-80%. One thing to note, and I mentioned this in a previous podcast, is what the definition of success is. As surgeons, our definition of success is when the apnea-hypopnea index (the number of times you stop breathing every hour) drops by 50% and the final number has to be less than 20. So if you start off with 50, you need to be under 20 to be called a success.

the dr is referring us to a dermatologist, but we don't know what it is yet. i have been looking on here and all over the web to find related pictures and such, no luck so far.if you can post your pictures on here and i will do the same.

I finally went to a psychiatrist and he was much more helpful and even prescribed a medication that works short term for anxiety.He also wanted me to come back in a week so that he can see how I am doing something me general doctor never said. Well good luck hope you feel much better soon.

I was on Paxil for 3 years (prescribed for Panic Disorder & Extreme Anxiety). I thought mine gave me a bit of problems with my GI tract from time to time, but you sound just like I did. Worrying about every little thing. Stress and anxiety can do some funny things to you physically if you dwell and obsess. (I know the feeling!) The more you obsess, the more you're going to find and question and you could end up going to the ER over it (as I did, many times).

my son now takes 100mg seroquel and 50mg trazodone at bed time, he sleeps all night and wakes up good in the morning and not tired all day, in the morning he takes 50mg zoloft and half tablet of klonopin (the whole tablet is 0.5mg), and does fine all day, I am having a second opinion on in November, plus a physical.

then she added Zoloft for anxiety ... hasn't seemed to change anything ... made an Appt with a Gastro Doc who also just took blood, said it was fine, said i was losing weight... gave me a check up and told me to stay on the stuff the other Doc gave me and come back in a month... so the situation is ... I'm 30 when this start i was 200lbs ... now a month and a half later i'm at 205lbs ... smoker ... I'm never hungry ... stomach still feels weird ...

Even after surviving the withdrawal, I was put on other drugs to combat the after-effects of my addiction; zoloft for depression (150mg/day), lorazepam for anxiety(1mg), and ambien for insomnia(5mg). I am still on all of these drugs as of now. What I'm trying to say through this whole post is that I still don't feel healthy with my mind and body. I abuse the things at my disposal in an attempt to feel something, but then I still don't.

she use to talk very well for her age but within this year i have noticed that its getting harder and harder for me and alot of people that are around on alot to understand her. I have taken her to a dr. they first put her on zoloft once a day .

My son born 8/17/87 (age 17) has been on Paxil for approximately 3 years. It was prescribed for General Social Anxiety and School Phobia. It was successful, and we have made the choice based on research and other goals to now wean off the Paxil by gradual reduction in doseage over a 6 month period. He's been on Paxil CR 25MG, 1 tablet per day. Then he went to 3/4 the dose for a month. As of 9/24/04, we went to 1/2 the dose. He'd been taking 37.

You and your Neuro want the clearest picture possible, to see if a diagnosis of MS can be established. Your should definitely have a spinal MRI of the FULL spine, top to bottom, with and without contrast dye. Not all symptoms from MS come from the brain. Also, the strength of the MRI machine is vitally important. Can you find out if you are scanned on an MRI that is at least at 3T? Ones that are usually used are 1.5T. Many lesions cannot be seen on the 1.
