Depression

Is Zoloft safe to take during pregnancy? This will be my first baby and I have been struggling mentally during this pregnancy. I really need this medication, but I’m so scared of harming my baby or my baby having potential issues later when she’s born😢can I please get some advice or other experiences with this medication ?

I was on zoloft my whole first pregnancy with no side effects, the dr won't prescribe you anything that hasn't been deemed safe for pregnancy. Do what you need to for your mental health ❤️

@Sarah awh. i’m so sad. they took me off my anxiety medication and anti depressants ☹️

General rule of thumb is to assess risk vs benefit. If your drs just took you off your meds without providing you some kind of alternative id look for another doctor. There are other anti depression meds like Sertraline that I’ve been told by my dr is on the safer side for pregnancy. I’m still on my meds and my psychiatrist has had no issues with me sticking to it as long as it’s beneficial for me. At the end of the day you need to be able to look after yourself!!
