Hi Lourah

I had terrible diahrroea for the first four weeks of taking Sertraline, it cleared up after that. I wondered if I had picked up a bug at first, but it all began at exactly the same time as going on the meds and I realised that within a few hours of taking a tablet the problems would always start. Do you find it is a problem at certain times of the day or can it happen at any time? Do you always take your tablet at the same time each day?

Hope it all eases off for you soon.
