Hi Everyone!
Has anybody had experience of tinnitus whilst taking sertraline?
I have only been taking a low dose of 25mg for a week but the past day or two I have noticed moderate constant ringing in my ears.
I’m just after some input from people who have had a similar side effect? Has this gone away over time?
Thanks!

Hi, BAKM!
It's a common side effect:
"Common (1% to 10% of users): Fever/pyrexia, malaise, tinnitus"
Side effects generally resolve within a week or two but you should let your doctor know because in some cases the tinnitus can become permanent.
Kind regards,
depression, tinnitus, sertraline, dosage, anxiety and stress
