Sweating and antidepressants

[CathyT]

Hi all,
I'm now on a full dose of Zoloft (50mg). I've always sweated more than anyone I know, but now its just ridiculous. It just pours off of me when I do anything other than just sit around. Is this something that eases up with time?
Please say it is!

yeah i think it eases up with time or you just don't notice it as much....
my antidepressants make me sweat too....
i just have sorta just dealt with it since i would rather be all sweaty than all depressed in bed crying all the time....
it is real annoying though but it is better than the alternative....
i really don't have any solution since i haven't figured it out either....
probably someone else has some tips....:rolleyes:
i hope your doin good otherwise though...
take it easy and take care

Thanks Stef,
I agree with you........I'd rather be sweaty than depressed any day!

I had that reaction to Wellbutrin for a while. But it was listed on the side effects when I started taking it, and it did lessen over time for me. Hope that helps! If you can live with it short term, it may gradually go away, or you may just have to decide which is worse, the depression or the sweats!
