Guest guest Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 Has anyone seen poor eating and more potty accidents during the period of upping the dosage of ssri's? My son was fully potty trained (day and night) before starting zoloft and then he started having *a lot* of accidents after starting it. I've noticed that his appetite decreases after upping the dosage and accidents are more frequent. He now has to wear a pull up at night. About a week before upping his dosage again, he was getting a lot better with the accidents and eating. His appetite came back strong after about 3 weeks of the last increase. So that gave me about a week of great appetite and few accidents. We just upped his dose again and I see him completely slipping back down the accidents slope and his eating is tapering off again. I'm hoping it will come back in a few weeks after he adjusts to the increase and I'll find out that it was just an adjustment period but I just *know* we'll be upping the dosage at least one more time! : / I don't know for certain that this is what is causing it - it's just my gut feeling. It would help to know if anyone has gone through something similar. Cheryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 Cheryl, Definitely a correlation at our house with the potty accidents and increasing SSRIs.... no daytime accidents this past year EXCEPT within a couple of days of increasing the SSRI... big accidents. It happened over a month ago when we increased it, and we just increased it a couple of days ago and ouila...another big accident. The problem was short lived last time, so I hope it will be gone in a day or two this time again. Caroline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 We didn't for my youngest - would have liked that. Skinny little thing. Are you wanting weight gain for yours, or looking to avoid? --- Argie <golivo@...> wrote: > Question for the group.
