Yes, constipation, muscle weakness, and dizziness are some of the possible side effects that people experience when taking Sertraline.
Constipation is a common side effect of Sertraline. It can cause difficulty with bowel movements or infrequent bowel movements, and the stool can be hard and dry.
Muscle weakness, referred to as muscle weakness, is also mentioned as a possible side effect of Sertraline. It can manifest itself as a feeling of fatigue or lack of energy.
Dizziness, especially when standing up, is another potential side effect of Sertraline. Patients may experience a sensation of spinning or loss of balance, especially when changing body position.
If you experience such disturbing symptoms (constipation, muscle weakness and dizziness), I encourage you to consult your attending physician, who will be able to assess your situation and suggest appropriate treatment. If you are unable to consult your doctor, you can use the teleconsultation here:
