It isn’t uncommon to suffer from Zoloft or Prozac headache. These powerful medications cause chemical changes in the brain. These chemical changes are supposed to relieve your depression or anxiety. Unfortunately, like with any medication you can experience side effects. You should tell your doctor immediately if you are suffering from a Zoloft or Prozac headache.

The Zoloft or Prozac headache you are suffering from could just be temporary. It takes a while for the body to get used to the medication and for it to begin to successfully treat your anxiety or depression. However, if you are not noticing any improvements in your mental health in 4 to 6 weeks, but you are still get a Zoloft or Prozac headache from time to time, then your doctor needs to know. Even if there is a marked improvement in your mental health, it may be worth trying another medication rather than suffer from the headaches.

I suffer from anxiety and I have tried Zoloft, Prozac, Celexa, you name it. While I never suffered from a Zoloft or Prozac headache, the different medications were not all equal in their ability to treat my anxiety. In fact, with the exception of Lexapro, no anti-anxiety has been able to satisfactorily treat my condition. Usually these medications take a few weeks to kick in. Lexapro started relieving my anxiety within a half hour of first taking it. So, if you have a Zoloft or Prozac headache, ask your doctor to try another medication that can successfully relieve your depression or anxiety symptoms without giving you a headache.
