zoloft and homeopathic remedy will interact negetively.

i believe your lack of appetite is due to zoloft.

if you gradually taper down zoloft andand stop taking it, then note your symptoms, you can take some homeopathic remedies, if needed.

postpartum anxiety may be cured through either natural means or homeopathy. zoloft will only suppress the irregularity and once you stop it the problem will bounce back with greater intensity.
