A member asked:

Haven taken zoloft (sertraline) 100mg 6 days ago. can i resume at 100mg or do i take 50mg for a week than go top 100mg?

Best to titrate: Is always best to titrate a medication when dealing with the central nervous system. It's also not good to abruptly stop a medication that primarily works on the central nervous system as the side effects can reflect a withdrawal syndrome. Good luck and best wishes.
