Increased medication

[bernie1211]

I have recently had my sertraline increase 200 mg form 150mg. It's been nearly 2 weeks and I feel more anxious my pyscatrist said the anxiety Wodehouse get worse before it gets better. Anyone else have this.

that seems a very high dose. I've been prescribed 50mg but scared to take them. They have been here for over a month but i just keep looking at them and thinking oh no!! Read too many side effects but they defo are meant to make ya feel worse before feeling better. I've heard a few ppl on here saying u can get another tablet off doctor to take the edge off the side effects if the side effects are too bad for u cos I think it's best to stick with them til they settle

I looked up Wodehouse but got nothing on anxiety. Is this spelled right? I've never seen it before.

My pdoc says the therapeutic dose for anxiety on Zoloft is 150 to 200mg. And yes every time you increase or decrease your dose you will get side effects but they should go away. I have recently been put on Zoloft from lexapro and am titrating up to 159mg I am at 100mg now. Good luck!
