It really depends on the individual, some people don't gain any weight on it, some people only gain about 10 pounds, and still others continue gaining as long as they take it.

According to FDA reports, its other typical side effects may also include nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and mood changes.

Ref: Zoloft Information

The best thing to do is to maintain a healthy, well rounded diet, and get plenty of proper exercise, while you are on it, to help minimize the weight gain side effect.

Are you on any other medications?
