I am currently on a low dose of sertraline. I was on several other meds pre-pregnancy, I went off them as they were not safe during pregnancy. By 15wks my depression and anexity were so bad I was almost needing to be hospitalized. After discussing with ob, perinatal specialist, and pediatrician. I agreed to a low dose med that I will continue to take during post partum while breastfeeding.
I stopped taking it as soon as I found out I was pregnant but my anxiety got too bad (not good for baby). My ob switched me to sertraline because it is very safe for pregnancy and breastfeeding, and it actually seems to be working. Maybe you should ask your dr about it? Stress is more of a danger to baby.
s safe for baby and to use during breastfeeding, but comes with a small risk of pulmonary hypertension.
Are these two drugs compatable levothyroxine and sertraline hcl? Does your thyroid control your blood sugar?
I'm a 30yr old male. I was on Sertraline approx 10 years ago for depression and it seemed to work until a crash. For one reason or another over the years, my treatment has changed several times. It is 2011 and i have found my way back to sertraline. I am currently taking 10mg of buspirone 2x day and 15mg of mirtazapine for major depression and generalized anxiety. I have been feeling constantly tired, apathetic and despondent.

I have had migraines for the past 20 years, normally I experience 3 or 4 migraines a year but since I have been taking Sertraline I have had many more than usual. I am sure that it is the Sertraline because I normally take it before bed and have woke up several mornings with the leftover pain from the migraine I had while sleeping ( before Sertraline I have never had a migraine during the night ).
Hello everyone, three months ago I started with pgad, which is a condition that you feel unwanted sexual arousal, it is horrible, I couldn't even sleep, at some moments It goes away and others it will return.
I went to more than 12 different doctors, anyone knew what was happening.
I have ocd, this year is going to be my 5th year with ocd and with anxiety, with despersonalization and irreality.
The sertraline lol now I take celexa and its not really making me feel too different from the sertraline but, im always all over my bf now ahaha and as for the anxiety the sertraline basically killed that monster lol
My doctor prescribed me Sertraline 25mg on top of my existing med. The first day I took Sertraline I got stomach upset and diarrhea; reduced to 12.5mg now. I m suffering side-effects like I'm having a fever(fatigue, sweaty, chills at times). On top of that, my menstruation's cramp is exceptionally bad this time, not sure it was affected by Sertraline. I am not sure this med would help me anymore. Hope someone could induce more positive effects about Sertraline.
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.
