Sertraline - Recommended to take 200 mg

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hi

I have been on Sertraline for 50 mg for three weeks and 100 mg for three weeks.  Had some good days but problems with appetite, sleep and occasional black thoughts (OCD related).

My GP recommends 150 mg for a week and then 200 mg. They say 200 mg is very helpful for anxiety.

Has anyone here experienced improvement on the higher doses?

Many thanks.

Avril
