Hello, Lisa! How are you doing?

Sertraline is an SSRI class antidepressant and while it may help a little with some anxiety and mood swings that you could experience, you'd need to be on it for 4 to 6 weeks for it to reach its full efficacy level.

Learn more Sertraline details here.

It may also cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dry mouth and weight changes.

Are you tapering off the Methadone slowly?
