Hello all! I was on 75mg of Zoloft for 4 1/2 weeks. Saw slight improvement, but still had some pretty serious anxiety. My question is, my dr bumped me up to 100mg on January 11th. It’s been 3 days and I’m so nauseas again and the anxiety is through the roof. Is this normal???? I just wanna feel normal again! I’ve tried Zoloft in the passed and it has helped. So I’m hopful. I’m also pregnant and took it my whole first pregnancy and she’s totally healthy. Just some reassurance please!
It will pass I am told. I wake up with a buzzing feeling in the morning earlier before I should get up. Hard to sleep in.
I hope it passes. Good luck with the pregnancy. Best wishes.

Your doctor should have told you that the dose increase may result in symptoms resembling the ones which you experienced when starting the medication. It is normal for zolofit to increase anxiety, cause headaches, nausea, and induce insomnia within the first 1-2 weeks of treatment with the new dose. Your body needs to adapt. Give the medication at least 4 - 6 weeks before you decide whether to stay or it or withdraw.
