Hello, Can medication such as sertraline 100mg for anxiety and quatapine 25 mg for schizophrenia cause dizzy, tired and hunger all the time after taking it for 4 months? Is it side effects, or is it an illnesss or infection that has been made by being on the medication for a while?

Hello.Dizziness is a common side effect of Sertraline but only in the first 2-3 weeks of treatment. Increased appetite is a common side effect of Quetiapine but at that dose,usually does not cause much hunger.Your doctor should consider other causes of dizziness and hunger.
I wish you good health.
