Around 11, I took my Zoloft before I went to bed. I didn't have my water bottle near by or a cup for water, so I took my pill without water. An hour later, I woke up with incredible pain (like heartburn) in my chest. I am not sure if taking my meds without water is the reason why I am in so much pain or not. I also have a really bad headache and I can't sleep because of both the heartburn pain and the headache pain. Is there someone else on this board that has taken Zoloft and experienced this certain pain.









I always make sure that I take a huge drink of water with my medications because I have experience the same thing! I am not on Zoloft , I take 40mg of Prozac, but I have felt what you are talking about! It hurts!!!!
I have really missed you, Tina. It's great to see you again:) Sorry about the heartburn. Like Kell says, it probably got stuck & caused irritation. That's a sure fire way to get an increase of stomach acid. I think water & bread are a good idea. The more water you drink, the more stomach acid is diluted. Maybe even keeping a stash of crackers beside your bed is an option.
I never took zoloft, so I never had heartburn from it. I do know that the literature says that gastrointestinal side effects have been reported. My stomach is on the sensitive side, so I have found that with some SSRI's a glass of skim milk helped the med digest better.
How are the kids? Did you have nice holidays? Wishing you a very Happy New Year! Keep in touch! (((hugs))) jan
Jan- I am doing good. I will just do a separate post. Sorry I have been gone.
