No: There is no Cocaine or similar component of Cocaine in zoloft (sertraline), a non-addictive med. The closest connection i can make is that zoloft effects neurotransmission of serotonin, which can be involved in affecting mood. That's pretty much where the connection ends. Cocaine significantly impacts Dopamine neurotransmission & is highly addictive, both having stimulant & anesthetic properties.

NO: There is no narcotic in zoloft (sertraline). Why your tongue "feel kinda numb" is unknown but probably not related to the zoloft (sertraline).

No cocaine in Zoloft (sertraline): There is no Cocaine in commercially prepared sertraline. However, you might have some sort of allergic reaction to the filler in the tablet or something like that. Stay safe!
