The runny nose may not resolve while you're taking zoloft but you may get relief by using a nasal decongestant spray. The literature states it's safe to use while on zoloft.

That effect is not known, but that doesn’t mean what you’re experiencing isn’t from the Zoloft. Together with your doctor, one question to consider is how soon the sensation started after you began Zoloft. Together, you’ll have to decide the path forward: you will have to decide whether the discomfort is intolerable, and they will have to consider whether a different medication would be better.
