I’m throwing up yellow bile on 50mg of zoloft, what do i do?

Posted , 3 users are following.

I recently started Zoloft, and I started out with 25mg. When I was taking 25mg I only had one instance where I felt nauseous like I was going to throw up, but I didn't actually throw up. A couple days ago my dosage got upped to 50mg. I think its the second or third day I've been on it and I am throwing up a lot. It started off after I ate some pizza and had a headache, then nausea came, and then when I woke up in the morning it was so bad I could barely walk because I felt so sick. I've thrown up straight bile 7 times today from 8:00-1:00 ish. I'm nervous that if I go up on my dosage again it will be even worse then this time. Is that true? Could that happen? Do symptoms get worse the higher of a dosage you take? And when I do feel nauseous because of Zoloft, what are some things I can do? Is it unusual for my puke to be neon-yellow?

    hi. i hope you are ok.

    i have recently changed from citalopram over to sertraline i done a week with 20mg citalopram and 25mg sertraline and then 4 days of 50mg and since yesterday 100mg.

    i have felt sick but havent actually been sick. you shiuld maybe call your doctor and see what they are saying. my doctor did tell me that sickness was common and should calm down after a week or 2.

    i have felt all going today like restless and my anxiety is worse. have you had this?
