Sertraline is very promising drug for OCD. Most common side effects in the initial period may be gastrointestinal upset, slight sleep disturbance, anxiety but memory loss has not been reported. You might face some emotional numbness in initial few days but it will subside by about 2 week.
Next Steps
Continue medicine
