started sertraline 8 days ago, 25mg first week, started 50mg yesterday. when is the best time of day to take it. just getting a bit of the runs and sleep going worse. i know trazadone did help my sleep but had to come off it due to palpitations.
any advice would be very welcome. xx
I found my side effects were better when I took it at night before bed..around 9:00.
thank you, did they affect your sleep taking them at night
That was the one thing I didn't really notice a difference in. I've always had a hard time sleeping and I guess it did get worse for 3-4 weeks at first. I didn't notice a difference if I took the med at night or in the morning. I would wake up several times at night and it would take me longer than usual to go back to sleep. I also seemed to have more dreams and they were more vivid than before the med. The crappy sleep didn't seem to change no matter what time I took the medicine, but taking it at night made the other side effects better for sure so the trade off was worth it.
thank you doug 1847 you have been very helpful. hope the sertraline keeps helping you. take care
