Don't worry, this isn't a self pitying post like i usually have! I have a question, and i hope someone is around soon to help me...

i'm on zoloft, and i took one today with a multi vitamin like i usually do, and about a half hour later i had to run upstairs and puke...i didn't make myself, i hadn't even eaten anything (still haven't actually) but i am nervous now that i purged the zoloft, and i'm not sure if i should take another one or not. Any suggestions? Thank you so much in advance....

That is a hard one and I would probably base it on how much you vomited.

Usually, it takes about 30 minutes for a pill to dissolve in your stomach - so it's a close call in your case. However, there's really little harm in taking two Zoloft in one day...so to be safe, I'd go ahead and take another one. Of course, on the flip side, you're really not going to notice a difference, either, if you did purge the Zoloft this once, because the effects of Zoloft are cumulative.

Hope you're having a great weekend!!

Hi Grace and "Mom2Gabrielle" (which i must say is a beautiful name for your daughter, and that i'm sorry i don't know your first name...i'm quite the lurker), thank you for responding. I decided not to take another zoloft after i p'd, mainly because i went into a chatroom on something fishy and they scared me into thinking i might od (which i'm pretty sure zoloft can't make you do), but i'll just wait until tomorrow. what's weird is that i've been taking a vitamin with the zoloft every day to make sure i take it, and i haven't had this reaction to it. although, for some reason i've lost my appetite and haven't eaten in a few days. it's been years since i've taken vitamins (of course, didn't i buy the new one-a-day weight smart ones), and i think i need them. ugh, every day is a struggle. stay strong ladies.
