Hi Miss Sunshine
I've just been put on Sertraline, after 6 years on Citalopram and a flirtation with Venlafaxine.
I have had two weeks of morning loose bowels and abdominal pain, this is on half dose. Worried about that becoming worse when I increase the dose.
As well as depression /anxiety I have Breast cancer, IBS-D, Type 2 Diabetes and I have had my gallbladder removed 6 yrs ago.
Dose of Sertraline is 50mg, I'm at present taking just 25mg.
My GP just switched me, saying it was a better drug,
Anyone having similar issues to me?

I got really ill on sertraline and only lasted a week. Constant burping, nausea, vommitting and diarrhoea. I only lasted 7 days and the last three of those were on only 25 mg.
It is supposed to be good so maybe increase slowly Bonneville?
I'm on day 8 of Venlafaxine and not feeling good at all, though no digestive issues.

I've been on Sertraline for years now and been fine taking it. Initially when first prescribed anti depressants, I tried six different ones which were no help whatsoever. I was just about to give up on the drug treatment but thought I'd give it a last go with Sertraline - So glad I did. I find it really helps and I've had no major side effects. I suppose its just a case of finding the right drug for the right person
