Increasing to 50mg Zoloft

[LDavis1993]

First day taking 50mg of my Zoloft. Anxiety has been bad the last few days so my doctor wants me to increase. He says it should help a lot. I just don’t want increased anxiety from this increase… I have my Clonazepam .5mg and Hydroxyzine 50mg for emergencies.

Did you discuss your fears with your doctor?

[LDavis1993 in reply to LilyAnnepuppy]

Yes. He said the increase to 50mg will help.

Try to continue with the increased dosage; remember it takes time to adjust. If the increase is effective, you may not need the other meds as much. If the side effects are intolerable call your doctor.
