Sertraline

[ramsayboltonshounds]

Hiya, I have previously been on Citalopram for depression and anxiety. I also take proprononol (sp).

I have been off Citalopram for approx 18 months as I really couldn't get on with it.

I am worried about the insomnia and also weight gain - mainly because I'm currently not sleeping already and also because I have an eating disorder and weight gain would make things even worse.

So, when would be the best time to take it? I have been prescribed 50mg to start with.

Thanks

I took it in morning with breakfast . Found it kept me awake when I took it later in the day .

Hi

I was given 50mg for PND a few years ago and started by taking 25mg for first week in evening. Then I switched to 50mg in morning after that. I found it life changing and it truly saved me. I came off last summer but actually asked to go back on it last week so I’ve been back on 25mg before I’ll go up to 50

i never had any issues with insomnia or weight gain. Good luck x

Thank you both so much.

I shall take it in the mornings 😊
