Sertraline- how much do you take?

Hi,

I was on 50mg and then after some further traumatic events my doctor put me up to 100mg. Is that a high dose? Interested to know what others are on and if it’s possible to ever come off in the future.

I’ve not long moved up to 100mg after being on 50mg for many years. To be honest, I haven’t seen much difference since upping the dose.

I’d be interested to hear if people feel different on higher doses. I’m on 50mg but am actually starting to taper down with the aim of getting off it.

150mg

300mg, 100mg is on the high side but not too bad. I won’t be coming off any time soon. 10 years plus at this point but I’ve known people who did manage it.

150

I started on 50 & I now take 150 a day. It’s been amazing for my mental health & my ADHD too.

I was on 100mg for a long time and upped to 150mg when I was going through a particularly difficult time.

My psychiatrist actually told me that 100mg was barely a therapeutic dosage, and that she typically has her patients on 150mg.

Daughter on 175mgs now.

150 but I don't think they help
