HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
There are some potential drug interactions with zoloft. Garcinia cambogia can increase serotonin levels , since zoloft is a serotonin re uptake inhibitor, the use of both of these together can cause very high levels of serotonin.
It would be best to consult with your doctor before commencing the garcinia.
I hope this helps
