Zoloft

For the millions of patients who have taken Zoloft over the years in an effort to help curb their tendencies toward depressive episodes, the drug has seemed wonderful. After all, its advertisements tout its effectiveness in helping persons become less saddled by the cloud of depression. But many are now starting to question whether Zoloft is really "fool's gold."

Zoloft, one of Pfizer's many medications and certainly one of its most lucrative, has been marketed as extremely safe and as a result been used widely. However, this drug may result in side effects or may have contraindications that no one was warned about, as many unhappy Zoloft users have found.

To be sure, lower risk side effects of Zoloft, such as mania or a loss of libido, have been noted; though these are not life-threatening, they are annoyances and can definitely interfere with the quality of a patient's life.

More dangerous risks that have only recently come to light are suicidal thoughts and actions. These side effects have especially been noted in younger persons taking Zoloft, which was approved in 2003 for use in 6-17 year olds with severe obsessive compulsive disorders (OCDs).

Unfortunately, it seems that while Zoloft alleviates some individuals' mood swings, it doesn't work on their depression right away. Therefore, younger persons taking Zoloft become more energetic, but are still depressed; and for those who may lean toward suicide, that renewed sense of energy coupled with major depression translates into the ability to carry out the act of taking ones life.

For those persons and their loved ones who counted on Zoloft to alleviate the pressures of depression, this side effect's deadly results are devastating.

Though Pfizer now has openly accepted the fact that their manufactured drug Zoloft may increase suicidal behavior (and their warning labels speak to that side effect), those who have experienced this effect (or their families) may be able to file lawsuits against the drug maker.
