If you take fluoxetine did your blood pressure go up?

[Bookcaseinblue]

Considering trialling fluoxetine, as like many, I'm feeling a little down this year, but wondering if the lingering low feeling could be mild depression getting its hooks into me. I have had depression in the past and do not want to go back there if at all possible.

However, I'm anxious in case it might cause high blood pressure? I don't want mine to go up, mine's ok for now but runs in my family.

If you take it did you have any problems with blood pressure rising?

Bumping in case anyone sees this who takes fluoxetine?

Yes,but only at the highest dose. Lower dose just wasn't working. Discovered high bp after terrible migraine like headaches. Sertraline was way better when out on that instead.

Thanks CSIBlonde. Must have been a little scary. Glad that Sertraline worked out for you instead.
