Zoloft/diarrhea question ...

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone,

My 8 year old daughter has been on Zoloft for over a month. She

started out at 12.5mg and has been on 25mg. for the past two weeks.

My daughter has been having loose stools/diarrhea for the past 5 days.

My questions is ... could this be related to Zoloft? I understand

that diarrhea is one of the side effects but I would think she would

have had the diarrhea sooner if it was related. I'm wondering if it's

the Zoloft or a " stomach bug " . No other symptoms (no fever, body

aches, stomach aches, etc)

If your child experienced diarrhea with Zoloft, did it go away? How

long did it take?

Please ... throw out your thoughts to me ... ! I'm going to call

her psych. on Monday to see what he thinks.

Thanks,

Dawn
