I’m on 200mg of Zoloft, I had run out for a week but I am finally able to get my prescription filled. I have been experiencing some severe withdrawal symptoms. I am wondering if it’s okay to take the normal 200 mg dose or if I should taper up to the dose because I had no been on it?
What should I do? Ran out of Zoloft for a week, finally getting some, should I take normal dose?

I would ask your Dr. But my suggestion would be, yes, take the full 200 dose to get your blood levels back up again as quickly as possible. I don't see any logic behind a taper up approach after only a week off. feel better soon
