Do relacore and zoloft have similar ingredients?
I used to take zoloft years ago, but stopped taking it because it made gave me weird side effects. It made my hands and hair smell strange. I just started taking relacore and I think it's doing the same thing. Does anyone know if they have some common ingredients so I can find out which one it is that causes this reaction in me? Thanks.

No, they don't have similar ingredients, unless you react with some substance commonly used in the manufacture of tablets.
Zoloft is an antidepressant that is not in Relacore, and Relacore is a phony weight loss supplement that is not in Zoloft. From what I can tell on the web, Relacore is a mix of vitamins and plant extracts totally unrelated to Zoloft.
No they do not have the same ingredients. Zoloft is a prescribed drug and Relacore is a herbal supplement. Zoloft side effects are rash, joint pain, swelling, wrist and hand pain, breathing difficulties, swollen lymph glands. Rare side effects: Rare side effects can affect any part of the body if taking Zoloft, but I can not see how the two can be related because of one containing herbal supplements, and one being an SSRI.
