Administrator Altostrata Posted March 10, 2023 Administrator Share Posted March 10, 2023 Are you trying to find a good combination of drugs for anxiety? 14 hours ago, Victorias said: this week severe anxiety, loss of apetite, headaches, and agitation. /3 week on 20mgs/ If this doesn't bother you, you can postpone reducing Prozac, because TOO MUCH PROZAC is causing these symptoms.

Administrator Altostrata Posted March 10, 2023 Administrator Share Posted March 10, 2023 When 20mg Prozac is TOO MUCH, it makes sense to reduce it. Why do you not want to reduce your Prozac dose now? You will never stabilize from an adverse drug reaction if you continue to take the drug. This is not medical advice.

Administrator Altostrata Posted March 13, 2023 Administrator Share Posted March 13, 2023 We've already told you that you are probably taking too much Prozac and to reduce side effects, you could reduce the dosage. If you don't want to do that, you'll have to cope with the side effects. If what you want to do is continue taking 20mg Prozac, please discuss your problems with your prescriber. This is a site for reducing drugs, we do not provide support for psychiatric drug maintenance, that is what you pay your prescriber for. Please let us know when you want to REDUCE your drugs.
