    I didn't get the sweats for the first two months, but have done the last six weeks.  I don't sweat in the day, just at night. It's horrible isn't it.  I was hoping it would soon disappear soon, I expect there are lots of people still getting it, be good to know though. x

    I've been on sertraline for 3 weeks now and I have found that I'm sweating a lot at night. I wake up in the morning and I've sweat so much the whole of my body is wet. I have always had a shower every morning even if not needed, but I'm finding I need to have one now.

    I know what you mean about sweating and I've only been on them 10 weeks! Never used to sweat as much at night so it must be the Sertraline, perhaps in the summer it won't be as bad with not as much bedding!!
