Zoloft, a Drug consisting of Sertraline HCI compound, is an antidepressant and is basically used for Depression, Anxiety Disorders & Panic Attacks. Zoloft/Sertraline is a member of a class of prescription drugs called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Zoloft is being manufactured by Pfizer.

Since depression and other brain disorders are caused due to an imbalance of some chemicals in the brain, it becomes necessary to control these chemicals.
One such imbalance includes the decreased release of neurotransmitter substances (Like Serotonin, Dopamine, etc.) within the central nervous system. Amongst them the major one is Serotonin, whose basic purpose is to send electric signals from one nerve to another. A person suffering from depression will have imbalance amount of Serotonin in the brain, effecting the transmission of messages in the brain, thus leading to depression and anxiety.
Zoloft/Sertraline works by blocking Serotonin so that it does not get reabsorbed back into the sending nerve. This helps in increasing the amount of Serotonin, thereby the message transmission becomes normal and hence decreasing the amount of depression.
