out of antidepressants

Post Reply New Topic

My antidepressants ran out today (150 mg zoloft), and I don't think I'll be able to get another prescription in at least a week.

I'm scared, how bad am I gonna feel?

I was on Zoloft once, and I can't remember how much, but I had to discontinue it due to a bad reaction to the drug. It made me feel lightheaded for about a week when I stopped taking it.

Everyone reacts differently, though.

What about getting a hold-over supply from the pharmacy? Say, five to seven days worth, until your regular supply is filled?

those things don't work anyway. the whole effect is placebo. or almost the whole effect anyway.

Studies suggest that the popular drugs are no more effective than a placebo. In fact, they may be worse.

Why Antidepressants Don't Work for Treating Depression

Call your doctors office or pharmacy where you pick up the drug. They most likely will get you the script so you won't miss any doses.
