My daughter was on Zoloft (75mg) for 11 months until she decided that she needed to get off this medication. The doctor gave her a wean off schedule which took approximately 3 weeks. The only side effect that she complained about only two times was a nauseated feeling. Other than that she has been off Zoloft for 2 weeks now and is doing great. In the 11 months on this medication she did gain 25 lbs. This was more depressing to her than her original reason for going on the meds. She asked the doctor how long it would take to start to lose some of the excess weight and she was informed that it would take up to 3 months. Apparently the drug is still within your system but inactive. Since being off for 2 weeks she has noticed that her appetite has decreased and she has lost 4 pounds. Please consult your doctor for a wean off schedule and good luck to you................
