Yes it is the generic version of Zoloft... i was on it for 2 years and it helped a little bit, my doctor slowly increased the dosage because my anxiety has gotten worse over the years but it recently hasn't been working the way it should be. If you have mild anxiety or social anxiety it's a very good medication for that.

Give it at least 4 weeks and if it isn't helping then I would talk to your doctor about an alternative medication. I just found that it didn't work that well for me as my anxiety progressed through the years. At first it worked but then it kind of stopped. Yeah there isn't a higher dose than 100 mgs. Most anti-depressants are 100mg and under.
