General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Zoloft and welbutrin are antidepressants and are very effective in releving their symptoms. However the on ly set back with these drugs and most other antidepressants is the longer time period required for the medicine to start working. Sometimes it may take almost a month for the action to begin.

So You might have to wait for atleast one to three months before you can really say that these drugs work for you.
