Could zoloft (sertraline) cause a burning throat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rarely: Very rarely (.1-1% of cases in pre-marketing studies) people may develop dysphagia or esophagitis. More commonly, dry mouth may be a side effect. Please tell your doctor about any problems you're experiencing with your medication.
