Sertraline: Zoloft or sertraline is a medication used to treat many conditions such as anxiety. Common reactions include dry mouth, sexual dysfunction or constipation. Rarely, Zoloft may may cause increased symptoms of depression or suicidal thoughts. With that being said, most patients have no problems with zoloft. Cessation of your twitches is a good sign.
