He's right about the dose equivalents. 50 mg might not totally do it for you, so you can bump up in small increments.
You may also have start-up side effects like anxiety, insomnia, hand tremors and muscle twitches.
Zoloft has been a great med for me. I have MDD with significant anxiety. I have been on both Zoloft and Lexapro and I felt that Zoloft was a bit stronger, though more likely to make me apathetic and take away my sex drive at higher dosages.
