Can Zoloft Cause Diarrhea?
Hello, Yes, it is due to Zoloft. The most common side effects of it include nausea or upset stomach, diarrhea, sweating, tremor, or a decreased appetite. Sexual side effects may also occur, most notably ejaculation failure and decreased libido. Diarrhea leads people to become non-compliant pretty quickly. Instead of quitting your medications, please visit your clinician. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Regards, Dr AJEET SINGH, General & Family Physician
