See MD: Please see your prescribing doctor as soon as possible to review and rule out Zoloft (sertraline) side effects. Your doctor knows your medical history and can best help you decide what to do. Best wishes.

Side effect: 13% to 24% of patients experience Diarrhea as an adverse reaction to Sertraline. Give it another week or 2 and see if the symptoms subside. If the GI symptoms do not subside, discuss with your doctor about changing the medication
