Can anyone tell me the actual shelf life of fluoxetine?  I don't want to go back to my psychiatrist for a new script while I am tapering, so I am wondering if I can use some fluoxetine that I saved from 2014.  I don't think the expiration dates are accurate, but

Look on the label of your Prozac for the expiration date. What is it? If you can't find it, ask the pharmacy where the prescription was filled.

 

Any doctor can prescribe Prozac, it doesn't have to be a psychiatrist.

This is not medical advice. Discuss any decisions about your medical care with a knowledgeable medical practitioner.
