First timer - questions about sertraline?

[rose]

ADs can cause problems with sexual function, but so can depression.
Everyone is different but I can't say I've seen a difference with sexual function apart from the first few weeks (it can be more difficult to orgasm, for example, but that side effect seems to go away after a few weeks)

50mg is usually the starting dose for sertraline as far as I know. If you start at 100mg you are more likely to feel side effects; that said if the nurse felt that you need a higher dose straight away then it might be best to give it a go.
My suggestion is that you keep a simple diary of how you feel and go straight back to the doctor if you feel like you are getting worse; don't be afraid to seek support.

I've been on Sertraline. It didn't actually work that well for me, but that said, that's why there are so many different ADs out there, because some work better for some and not others.

Unless you were told otherwise, it would be best to take it in the morning.
