I have been sweating profusely lately. Even small tasks have me breaking out in a sweat (getting dressed, folding clothes, etc.) has anybody experienced this on Zoloft? this is a new side effect for me.

    I’m interested to hear what people say. I have been on Zoloft for a while but I haven’t experienced any sweating personally. Mostly weight gain, and a huge loss of sex drive for me

      my weight has increased significantly since I started 100mg. It's uncomfortable. And I just can't find the motivation to exercise to get back to a comfortable weight.

        yeah I gained a bunch of weight I’m currently up to 150mg and still thinking I might need to go up again in the future because of my persisting depression symptoms even on the higher dose

    My weight causes me to sweat easily, especially when cleaning the house or doing other chores. I feel birth control, antidepressants and unhealthy eating combined has contributed to my weight gain. Oh, and I have a hormone imbalance that doesn't help much either, PCOS. I shower frequently to help rid of sweatiness and use a fan, lol. Losing the weight hasn't been an easy task. Good luck to you on your mental health journey ❤️

      this is a good point I didn’t think of but yes the weight gain can bring on sweating too. I sweat a little more actually but I attribute it to my weight gain on the medicine rather than a side effect by itself, but I’m sure others have excessive sweating caused by the medicine itself

    I never put it together either but when I was on Zoloft a few years ago. I went through the same thing I thought it was just part of my menopause but maybe not maybe it had to do the meds. That was probably a bit of 20 years ago
