Being prescribed this today. How did you get on with it? Ever since a bad experience of citraploram a few years ago I’m worried x

I've not taken it, my DD is on it. She was on Fluoxetine previously but found it didn't seem to have any effect on her so they switched her to Sertraline.

She found for the first few weeks that she was having night sweats and headaches. But those have since gone and she has found it seems to be working better for her.

Good luck Flowers

Hi we have a sertraline buddies 2 thread running you're very welcome to join us on that x

It's a good drug but it can take time to work and you may find the first couple weeks a bit rough with side effects. Has the doc prescribed any diazepam to help with that? Are you taking for anxiety or depression?
