What Causes Hot Flashes And Cold Sweats After Taking Zoloft?
I was prescribed Zoloft (50 mg) Tuesday and i took it for the second time last night. I woke up fine but after about 2 hours I felt hot and then cold and like I was going to pass out today. Is this normal? Should I stop taking it if this is happening or maybe try half a pill?
