In reply to zoloft and side effects, posted by jewel on June 5, 2001, at 9:30:44
I had vivid dreams/nightmares the whole year I took zoloft. I also had trouble falling asleep, and staying asleep. I don't know if it was the sleep loss or not, but my attention span and short term memory were even worse, and they're normally bad anyways.
The other se's, the dry mouth, nausea, etc. went away. I can't speak to tremor, as I never had it.
The se's sound fairly mild, like they're worth the trade off if they can quell your anxiety.
> I was prescribed 100mg/day of zoloft for panic disoder/anxiety about 3 weeks ago and apart from several side effects i think its great! The side effects are vivid dreams, waking up disorientated, dry mouth, diarrhea, rapid weight loss, slight tremor and muscle twitches. I was wondering if there is anyone out there who has experienced similar symptons and if so do these symptons go away in time or should i try another med, the symptons aren't too severe and im hoping there temporary!
