Sertraline upping dose

[Kayleeangel123]

So i started on sertraline about 4weeks back on 50mg. I take it at 9pm at night and my sleep has been ok no problems. My dosage was upped to 100mg a few days back and the last few days since upping it my sleep is interrupted, i feel im half and half the whole night like im tired but cant sleep. It was fine on the 50mg but since i upped dosage my sleep is interrupted. Will it ease out or shall i start taking it earlier than 9pm.

My sleep can be very disrupted when I take higher doses of Sertraline. I personally didn’t find it was something that evened out as I got used to the dose.

I would try taking them in the morning rather than the evening and see if it helps. Or you could pull it forwards a few hours. When I was having problems, my GP said to take them in the morning and it definitely did reduce the impact on my sleep.
