What Causes Memory Issues While On Zoloft?

I have been taking Zoloft for about 7 1/2 months and have become aware that I am a little spacey and having memory issues....some that are alarming as having talked to someone who came to my house and then for a period of about 15 minutes knew that I had been talking to someone but couldn t remember who....does this have anything to do with the Zoloft (I am known for having an excellent memory...at least I used to)?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

It is not related to Zoloft. Other causes like Alzheimer’s and senile dementia must be ruled out if you are old age. Consult a neurologist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
