My son has taken different SSRI for the past 7 years for OCD. He took Paxil and then Zolofort. However, about half year ago, he had trouble in concentrating and we tested him for ADHD. Test was positive He stopped with Zoloft for about 1 month earlier in order to change SSRI, but he did not need it any more. Is it possible that he Zoloft could lead to ADHD?
Hello, I can only answer from my own experience. I have noticed myself an increased difficulty with concentration and memory when taking Zoloft so I quit taking it about 30 days ago. Still nothing has improved, I do wonder if the Zoloft is a cause. Who knows, maybe one day will have the correct answer as it has number of adverse side affects.
