Has anyone gained weight on Zoloft? I was increased to 100 mg for two weeks and I have been on 150 mg for a week now.

I also have gained about 5 to 8 pounds in three weeks, it kind of pisses me off if it is the Zoloft increase that caused it.

My pants are snug again whereas 3 weeks ago they were not.

Now if that aint enough to depress someone...........

Sometimes when we are depressed we don't eat as much due to the depression. It could be you are eating mroe because you feel better. I was on Zoloft for a few years, did not notice a lot of weight gain. But you know all the antidepressants have the potential to cause weight gain.

That's a large gain within a short time. I would call the doc about it, Mike. And munch on carrot sticks!
Best of luck...

Shalom!

Meds are weird as they can both cause weightgain and weightloss and sometimes some ppl don't even notice anything weightwise. anti psychotics and mood stabilizers are kinda famous for being 'fat pills', tho.
