I give in, it's time to take antidepressants. Before I do, I just
wanted to check here that Zoloft is the best one for bf. I am in the
UK, does anyone know if it has the same name here please?

Thanks.

Sertraline HCI is drug name so that should help. I have been on it for two
months and I am starting to feel better. Good Luck.

Yes, and yes : )
Zoloft's the best, and that is the UK trade name for sertraline.

Thanks both. Armed with my copy of Hale's, I got it prescribed without
too much argument.

I hope it helps, because I feel about at the end of my rope.

Zoloft's the drug of choice over here too...I've been on it for the better
part of the last 7 years. Just keep in mind that it can take several weeks
to work, so don't get discouraged if you don't feel immediately better with
that first dose.

Good luck, hang in there,

Jen

Thank you. It's been a long time - ten years - since I took any
antidepressants, so I feel somewhat of a failure to be giving in now.

Interesting, though. The patient info says a side effect can be an
increase in prolactin with consequent milk production. Have you, or
anyone else on Zoloft, ever noticed this?

It would be good if it was significant, as I have to take domperidone to
keep adequate production.

It helped me tremendously with my PPD. I'm off it now -- the side
effects were bugging me -- and I feel just dandy.
