zoloft

[Guest guest]

Anyone kid take zoloft or tried it? DAyton started about 7 weeks ago.. we can

tell a difference but side effect is drooling and vomiting. Not sure if it is

from meds are not? I know the spit up is turning to vomit more and more... like

reflux... ugh.. not again!!

Called the dr mention Paxil... going in tomorrow. Any advice.

Thanks

Hi ~ Dylan (12,DS, Autism) started about the same time, around mid-June.

Within 3 weeks we saw positive effects. The only down side we've seen (not sure

if it's related to the meds or not though) is that he's super giggly/goofy at

bedtime. But it's been nicer to deal with than his extreme unhappiness/sadness

we had before. We haven't experience any drooling or vomiting from the meds.

Dylan was sick for about 12 hours one day vomiting, but that was it.

Dylan is on 12.5 mg once a day. Dr. suggested upping the dose, but I wasn't

ready for it yet & he was going to camp that week. I am happy with things the

way they are, I suppose they could probably improve but we're just enjoying the

fact that his mood is a little better. And, I hate messing around with meds.

Dylan is on abilify & ritalin as well.

I know our psychiatrist said that if this one didn't help there were lots of

other ones out there, so if I had the side effects Dayton is I would probably

try and find something else.

Good luck!

THANK YOU!!!!

We are going to the dr this afternoon!!! It hit me in the middle of night.. he

is on Amoxil for his ears and wondering again if the RX is messing with the

system and hate to change anything now for least a week or so! We are 8down and

6 days to go!

Also.. we are taking 25mg zoloft and it was bumped to 50mg few weeks back.. and

umm all the drowiness kicked in and vomiting. I think it to high of a dose!

Need a psychiatrist.. just not around worth a toot!!!

Thanks
