RATING | REASON | SIDE EFFECTS FOR ZOLOFT | COMMENTS | SEX | AGE | DURATION/ DOSAGE | DATE ADDED |
1 | OCD | Tolerance, Increased Anxiety, Increased Panic Attacks, Insomnia, Faster Dehydration, Fatigue/Weakness, Loss of Attention, Loss of Memory, Loss of Motivation, Loss of Food Appetite/Anorexia, Brain Zaps, Possible Serotonin Syndrome, High Blood Pressure, Loss of Inhibitions (Too Much Talking), Some Crazy Thoughts, Tachycardia, Chest Pain, Possible High Blood Cholesterol | People say Zoloft isn't addictive, but it absolutely is ADDICTIVE. You can build up tolerance as if it was speed, benzos, or heroin. Once you start this, it's going to be difficult to get off of it. F**k this pill, I s**t on Frieza. What do you want? A permanent er**t**n, massive doses of c***ine, peanut-sized t****cl*s, thick brown urine, handfuls of d***n*rs, horse steroids, Frankenstein Monster Syndrome, b**** t***, massive trauma, total shutdown, sudden death? ***h*les won't come first because this drug ruined my life. It works like sugar and can give you a massive heart attack when withdrawn from a higher dose. I forget to take that pill, I will get chest pains and tachycardia. It's like adult candy, a pill that is poison rather than sweets. | M | 19 | 6 years 50 mg 1X day | 6/22/2012 | 1 | Depression, anxiety | Long-term use of SSRIs (not just this one) caused Serotonin Syndrome, which included incontinence. Stopped once I went off them, restarted when I restarted them, so it was definitely them causing it. | I'm fine now that I'm off them, but these drugs shouldn't be on the market in my opinion. Avoid if possible, or only take for a very short time if you do take them. | F | 33 | 1X day | 4/14/2010 | 1 | "depression" | Weight gain, hypomania, serotonin syndrome, total and permanent sexual dysfunction | Evil, pure poison....run for your life | M | 53 | 4 years | 4/29/2009 | 1 | depression, anxiety | Serotonin Syndrome | Zoloft sent me into a manic state and eventually to the ER. Serotonin syndrome is a rare side effect, but it happened to me. This effect took only 1 week. | M | 8 | 6 days | 12/4/2008 | 1 | Depression | Of all of the antidepressants I've tried, this one had the worst side-effects. On the third day, I was climbing the walls (serotonin syndrome, it's called), praying to God to allow the effects to wear off more quickly. The only benefit I got from Zoloft was the relief of having it leave my system. | M | 58 | 3 days | 1/4/2006 |
ZOLOFT (SERTRALINE HYDROCHLORIDE): Sertraline is used to treat depression, panic attacks, obsessive compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, social anxiety disorder (social phobia), and a severe form of premenstrual syndrome (premenstrual dysphoric disorder). This medication may improve your mood, sleep, appetite, and energy level and may help restore your interest in daily living. It may decrease fear, anxiety, unwanted thoughts, and the number of panic attacks. It may also reduce the urge to perform repeated tasks (compulsions such as hand-washing, counting, and checking) that interfere with daily living. Sertraline is known as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). It works by helping to restore the balance of a certain natural substance (serotonin) in the brain. FDA Approval Date: 1991-12-30 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)
