A member asked:
Can you tell me how long does it take for 50mg of zoloft (sertraline) to work for post partum ocd?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It may take 4 to 6: Weeks at a particular level of zoloft (sertraline) to really start feeling the effects. However, obsessive compulsive disorder often requires higher doses of ssri's - so you may need upward titrations of your zoloft (sertraline) to get full benefit.
