Question 2

i have been taking sertraline and sam-e (several hours apart).i've noticed a positive change in my mood, but i read that it can be unsafe to take both. is it true?

Accepted Answer

Talk w/your Dr: They have loosely related effects, so in theory could cause excess effect/side effects. If you are improving, should talk to your dr and decide together if should withdraw one and check for change or leave things as are.

Question 3

is taking sertraline and mdma together bad?

Accepted Answer

Dangerous: Combining prescription and recreational drugs together is a  dangerous thing to do and can be deadly!

Question 4

can taking 2000 mg of zoloft (sertraline) kill you ?

Accepted Answer

Not likely: Overdoses up to 4500 mg of sertraline alone produced mild drowsiness and serious toxicity did not develop in the 48 patients.

Question 5

could you lose weight while taking zoloft (sertraline)?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Yes, but calories burned will need to exceed calories taken in to lose the weight.If you are struggling with this you could discuss the possibility of change of meds with your provider.  If you have atypical depressive symptoms, wellbutrin (bupropion) may be a good option. Lexapro tends to be the most weight neutral of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors.

Question 6

can i safely stop taking zoloft (sertraline) cold turkey?

Accepted Answer

No: Zoloft (sertraline) should be tapered gradually when you stop it.

Question 7

what otc cough med can you take if also taking sertraline?

Accepted Answer

Here's a link that: ...lists the medications you should not take concomitantly with sertraline.  Ref: http://www.rxlist.com/drug-interactions/serious-index/sertraline-oral.htm

Question 8

would sam-e be any good with zoloft (sertraline) 200mg a day?

Accepted Answer

Caution. : Sam-e is a naturally occuring precursor to serotonin, and taking it can lead to increased levels of serotonin.  It is proving to be an effective treatment for depression, though the doses when taken alone are probably in the range of 1600 mg daily. When taken with a med like zoloft, (sertraline) one runs the risk of developing serotonin syndrome (flushing, diarrhea, palpitations, agitation). I advise caution.

Question 9

is it a bad idea to be taking ecstasy and zoloft (sertraline)?

Accepted Answer

Yes it is bad: Ectasy can also lead to depression and anxiety as well.

Question 10

if i skip a day of taking zoloft (sertraline) will it affect me?

Accepted Answer

Most likely : No, it won't affect you. If you realized u skipped a dose one day after the missed dose, resume ur treatment without "doubling" the dose. If you realize the skipped dose a few hours after your regular intake time, u may take it if it available to you, if it's at night already & u r not used to take it in the pm, wait till the next am. Hope it helps, good luck!
