About Zoloft 

Zoloft is an antidepressant that belongs to a class of drugs called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). SSRI medications work by balancing serotonin levels in the brain and nerves.

Zoloft is used to treat major depressive disorder (MDD), premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), social anxiety disorder (SAD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), panic disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Zoloft is available only by prescription. It is available in a generic formulation as well as under different brand names, including sertraline.

Zoloft may be prescribed as a tablet or oral suspension. It’s always important to follow the specific instructions on your prescription, as they can vary based on the formulation and dosage prescribed.

If you're prescribed Zoloft, be sure to complete the full course of the antidepressant unless your doctor specifically tells you to stop. If you don’t complete your prescription, the antidepressant may not fully treat your mental health condition.
