Zoloft okay to take after C diff??
I have developed severe OCD after testing positive for C diff and I have been prescribed zoloft I am terrified to take it because of it possibly giving me diarrhea which is a big fear of mine after having c diff. Has anyone took zoloft and was OK? Is this a ok drug to take?

I have not heard of any issues with anti depressants. We have had MANY posters on them or GO on them Post CDIFF. You are not alone!
They are important medications, try this one and if you have issues speak with your MD about other options. There are several out there

The most common side effects of Zoloft are nausea or upset stomach, diarrhea.There are other drugs that do the same thing as Zoloft with less GI side effects.

MANY antidepressants cause GI issues, including D and nausea. Sometimes the symptoms resolve; other times, they linger.
If your illness was preceded by use of a medication, e.g., an antibiotic, please fill out an FDA Adverse Event Report at http://www.fda.gov/Safety/MedWatch/default.htm
