Has anyone experienced severe nausea with the medication Zoloft(Generic form though)?

Answer 1

When I first started taking it I had bad nausea. It only lasted about a week or so and then I tolerated it just fine. Check with your Dr or RPh, they may say you are reacting to the fillers in the generic, not the main active ingredient, Sertraline. Good Luck!!

Answer 5

Are you talking about Sertraline? I used to work in a pharmacy, so...I'm not sure if nausea is a side-effect, but depending on the severity, I would definitely consult your doctor or call a nearby pharmacy. The pharmacist is always there to offer free and confidential support and information, and they may be able to suggest any over-the-counter medications that will aid with the nausea or even tell you to stop taking the medication until you talk to your doctor.
