Sertraline causing leg twitching?

Hey! I’m interested if anyone has had this side effect. After I started taking Sertraline, whenever I’d sit on my bed for a long time my leg would randomly twitch. It looks like that’s not a common symptom. I feel like it doesn’t really happen much anymore but it did for weeks and I’m pretty sure it was from the medication because I didn’t change anything else around that time lol.

Definitely something you should mention to your doctor! My significant other took Quetiapine (an antipsychotic so different of course) and his leg/knee started spasming whenever he went up to a higher dosage, his doctor lowered it and all is fine now. Hope this helps!
