A member asked:

Accidentally took a double dose of zoloft (i take 25mg pill cut in half so 12.5mg) right after coffee, 7 hours in between. any side effects?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sounds ok: A person should not notice a huge difference when accidentally taking one whole 25mg pill of Zoloft, if she has been taking half of a pill each day. In general, with these lower or "starting" doses of Zoloft, no worries.
