possible effects of stopping Zoloft for less than a week?

[treasured7]

76 yr old female taking Zoloft for a few months was admitted to hospital from ER for nausea, vomiting, dehydration and UTI. Hospitalist stopped the Zoloft for a few days due to renal failure.  Patient (my mom) has history of Crohns and currently has ileostomy and mucus fistula stoma from late April 2017 surgery. Suffering from high output (over 2 liters daily) pure liquid and wondering if this is possible side effect of not having Zoloft for those few days.

No.  She has renal failure.  When kidneys don't work, you don't pee properly, and stuff builds up.  If they've fixed it, it will start to pour out.  If they haven't fixed it, the whole urinary tract will be off.  Signs of Zoloft withdrawal, and you don't say if she's still off it, would more likely be nausea, disorientation, dizziness, anxiety, depression, insomnia, irritation, something that resembles the flu.  In really bad cases of withdrawal, you can develop new mental problems you never had before, inability to relax or sleep, headaches, stomach discomfort -- it's like coming off an addictive drug for those who have a hard time of it.  For some, this can last a long long time, which is why you always need to taper off of it, but in your Mom's case, she has no choice, and unfortunately, all the things she's suffering from can cause all of these symptoms as well.

And I should have added, many people come off these drugs with no side effects whatsoever.  The brain is a very complex organ.
