 Posted: 11/26/05 - 01:00 Post subject: zoloft headaches facial pain and swell |
  |

I have been prescribed Zoloft to help me fight my anxiety disorder but instead I experienced some weird side effects. Apart from the every day¡¦s headaches, my face hurts and is swollen. Besides that, the drug is good for me. So, I don¡¦t know if I should quit taking it, or wait a bit and see if these symptoms will go away?

Yes, face swelling is one of the possible side effects, but it is quite rare. I suppose you were just unlucky enough to strike you. ƒ¼ I reckon you should talk to your doc about this, so that s/he can prescribe you another form of anti depressant that works for your body chemistry and produce less severe side effects.

I was on Zoloft for 2 years for depression. Although prior to taking Zoloft I always had like shoulder and back aches, I realised that after taking Zoloft, I gradually developed lots of headaches.... ended up with chronic tension headaches and migraines!
Apparently headaches are a side effect of zoloft, but I don't know if it was the cause of my headaches or that it merely aggravated the pain. Now that I am off Zoloft, I am wondering if the headaches will remain? |
