A member asked:
I get some aggressive twitches with my neck and limbs. would anxiety cause this even when i feel ok?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Twitches: In neck and limbs can occur with Zoloft (sertraline) use. It's uncommon. Try to get a video of the movements to show your doctor. don't make any medication changes without a face to face assessment.
