My 87 years old mom was placed on Zoloft a year ago due to depression. She is on 50mg of Zoloft. Mom says she does not understand why she is still on it because she feels she is no longer depressed.
Have read on Zoloft and I am concerned about it's side effects etc. I do know that mom does not remember things as she once did and this all started after being on Zoloft. She seems not to have the energy she once had. She was driving still and everything. Now it is like she is an entirely different person.
I do think that mom is not always taking her medication because she sometimes acts strangely. Could anyone give me some suggestions in dealing with her. I am very concerned this is my mom.
Does Zoloft react differently in someone her age? I believe it does because she has changed entirely after being on this. I mean this is suppose to be for depression but now there are so many other things that are there that was not there since taking the Zoloft.
