So instead of changing Zoloft 100 mg to Effexor my doctor suggested to increase Zoloft to 150 mg. It's been two days taking 150mg I feel very sleepy for now. Will that go away???? Does anybody experienced the same and saw this side effect reduced after some days of taking it???I'd be great to hear from someone who could relate to that. Thanks 🙏

i was on 150 mg of zoloft for about 5 months, i also experienced this extreme sleepiness, its a quite common side effect! it should go away within about 2 weeks i think, but if its unbearable or doesnt go away make sure to let your doc know!
