Zoloft question......?

[youngdude421]

I recently had my zoloft dose increased from 125MG to 150mg because it had the "poop out" effect at 125 does anyone know how long it takes for the dosage increase to take effect???? thank u any feedback is appreciated

Any dose change has to be given the same amt of time as when you started taking the med,and yes, it can take upwards of 4+weeks to notice any changes.  While you may respond quicker, you still have to give it ample time to work.  In my experiences with these meds (including Zoloft), andy dosage adjustment took 3-4 weeks before I really noticed any improvement.  Just try to be patient, as hard as that is to do!

I personally never took Zoloft but I have background in neurobiology and it's the aprox. time for your brain to adjust to the new dose, that is, one week.

Thank you for the feedback M4, you really think a week? that would be better than a month..... do you have any experience with zoloft?

We are always talking about one week to maximum 4 weeks when talking about such subject.

My bet? no more than 1 week.
