Zoloft Tablets make me extremely sick Post op .. any idea what I should do ?

hi everyone long time user of Zoloft but I realized the tablet form makes me extremely ill to the point of vomiting. My dr switched me to liquid but I lost the instructions ?

anyone have similar experience after taking Zoloft Tablets? My psychiatrist told me that capsules weren’t available.. any recommendations? Tips tricks .. I ate crackers after I vommited ? hopefully that calms my stomach down

    If you can't find the instructions for the liquid, call the pharmacy or the doctor's office. Easiest way to find out how the doctor wants you to take it.

    Or google the dosage (you’ll get side effects, contraindications, etc. too) at least until you get definitive advice from your surgeon. Doubt they would be advising you to take a higher dose more oft

It's a wafer not in gel form it's dry and flat just like the tablet but dissolve under the tongue

Zoloft has always given me stomach issues, pre and post-op. My solution has been to take it with milk/protein shake and make sure you have a few oz of the milk/protein shake in your stomach before taking the pill. That has mitigated all issues for me.

I feel your pain! I have been lowering my dose from 150mg down by 50 each week to this week where i stopped taking it due to the same reasons you stated. I just can’t stand it now but i really do need it. It’s a struggle. I tried capulets to sprinkle but it’s the same as tablets. Asking dr for liquid later today but I’ve been totally off of it for 5 days and withdraw symptoms are as real as when i started taking it years ago. GB was on 10/31 and between this and the horrible air bubbles when i try to eat or drink anything that cause pain and make me never want to eat again, i am not a happy camper.
