Hello

This can happen when we increase the dose of medication but should settle down again

If you find after a week or so you are still getting the same then have a word with your Doctor and see what they suggest but I hope you feel a little reassured that it is quite common to feel some side effects when increasing the dose :-)

Take Care x

Hi. I've just started sertraline and had similar symptoms. They seem to be easing off now I've been on it a few weeks, or maybe I'm getting used to them.

It is common to have these kind of symptoms when starting or increasing a dose of your medication. If the symptoms do not improve, or are too strong to cope with, go back and talk to your doctor, they may be able to help.

Eating regularly, and making sure I drink enough seems to help a little.

Not what you're looking for?
