Weight Loss Quitting Zoloft

Zoloft generically known as sertraline belongs to a category of antidepressants known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors or ssris.
Weight loss quitting zoloft. Hello i started taking zoloft yrs ago and it decreased my appetite too. If zoloft caused or contributed to weight gain how quickly those gains will reverse after discontinuing zoloft is not predictable and cannot be generalized between persons and situations. I had that problem with prozac.
At first i could barely eat anything. Like other ssris zoloft may cause weight changes in some people. Doctors prescribe zoloft for treatment of depressive disorders anxiety and other mental health conditions.
I feel as though the most noticeable thing that has happened for me since i quit zoloft has been weight loss and decreased aka back to normal person s appetite. I couldn t tolerate it at all. This past march my phyciatrist increased my zoloft to 100mg.
I hated it and it wasn t helping my depression any. The encouraging thing is that man. I didn t gain weight on zoloft because it gave me severe diarhea.
But after a few yrs of taking 50 mg of zoloft i gained weight like about 20 pounds. Zoloft made me eat like a football player. That is not predictable.
I have heard of people losing the excess weight after quitting a medication. Im now taking zoloft 100mg cymbalta duloxetine 30mg for 2wks then i will stop zoloft and just take cymbalta duloxetine. Stopping the medication isn t going to make the weight fall off.
