I am on 20mg fluoxetine and often feel shaky, weak and nauseous. Sometimes I have an upset tummy too. Has anyone else had these side effects whilst taking it?

How long have you been taking it?

Jemster · 09/06/2014 14:40

About 5 months now.

Oh no, side effects should disappear in a matter of weeks! Have you talked to your doctor? You probably need to try a different ad if you're sure that your symptoms are side effects and not something else.

I've been taking this for a long time, but never had these side-effects. I have same low dose too, so I think I'd discuss it with GP. LastingLight's right.
