Help! Taken 5-htp, then Zoloft. Trouble raising higher dose of Zoloft.?
Question:
I have trouble rasing the Zoloft dosage to 25mg. My body reacts too sentitive if I take 25mg. I get anxious, nausiating, confused, etc.
Right now, I am taking 12.5mg.
I think the reason for the sensitivity is because I have taken 5-htp for quite a while before began taking the Zoloft.
I really want to raise my Zoloft dosage to 25mg, and then later, 100mg.
What should I do?
Answers:
You can take 2/3 of a 25mg tab. You had better switch to another SSRI that is not hypersensitive for you.
SSRIs are:
(Trade names in parentheses)
citalopram (Celexa, Cipramil, Emocal, Sepram)
escitalopram oxalate (Lexapro, Cipralex, Esertia)
fluoxetine (Prozac, Fontex, Seromex, Seronil, Sarafem)
fluvoxamine maleate (Luvox, Faverin)
paroxetine (Paxil, Seroxat, Aropax, Deroxat)
sertraline (Zoloft, Lustral, Serlain)
Fluoxetine come as a liquid too, more control of dosing.
