Hi Cathyramsdell! I have been on Zoloft 200 mg for years now. I do experience gas and bloating but it could be a side effect of other medical issues I have. Now I can bring this up to my doc. I thank you for the information. I do hope you find the cause of these symptoms since they are very uncomfotable. I do not know if you have any other medical problems, but there are alot of diseases and meds that can have these side effects. I hope you find the cause so you can receive the correct treatment. I will say a prayer for you! Sweetie Pie
Hi Cathy... From Sacosam's , "For what it's worth department"! Zoloft or Sertraline (Generic)? This guy believes you're way too high ! I was on sertraline for 8 yrs.+/- and I wanted to be happy so for a time I went up to 200mg... Bad Idea... felt like someone had unscrewed my belly button, and filled my gut with cotten laced with hot pepper "LOL"! I dropped back to 100mg and stayed there for 3 more years... "Much Better"! I have a Sister that is also doing 100mg. of Sertraline (4 yrs.) (:->) Sacosam
I wish I could say I feel a lot happier. I have been really struggling with depression since I got a herniated disc at work, got denied comp etc. plus depression also runs in my family
Stomach upset, which could include gas, belching, etc. is a common side effect of Zoloft. If you find it really bothersome then please see your doctor. (If they don't return your call you may need to make an appointment to see him/her).
