I have been taking Zoloft for about 5yrs, and about 3 weeks ago I stopped because my insurance ended. My anxiety and depression are completely back, so I would love to go back on. Can I just start back with my same dosage (100mg) ?

Thanks for any help.

Beach,

Check with your Dr. re what dose to start with - he may have you start with 50 mg for a few days and then up to the 100mg. This is just my opinion. Good luck.

Hi Beach
Kitts right. best to talk with your dr first. have you been weening your self off or did you go cold turkey? because going cold turkey can have some bad effects.
take care
