Prozac

[Beautifulminds]

About a year ago I came off of Prozac, I was taking 40mg a day as prescribed by my doctor for anxiety and low mood. I was on it for for around a year and a half but came off as I felt that I could.

I am now in a position where I feel like I need it again, and still have some in the cupboard. Can I just start them up again as before then make an appointment at the gp next week? I’m not sure what to do

i think it might be the kind of drug where you need to work your way up to 40mg .if it worked before it hopefully it work again .
definitely go see your gp for new prescription.

I did this in the past. Perhaps break the ones you have in half and try a week of 20mg before going back up to 40.

Willworkforfood did it work for you the second time around? I’m hoping it does as I need to take it again.

Yes it did, as did the sexual dysfunction that made me come off them firs time round.

Still searching for a solution that isn't Mirtazapine which didn't help with depression. (awesome for anxiety though).

I was on Prozac for about 6 years.

I’ll definitely try again then. It affected my sex life too, although that is a known side affect. My mental state is greater at the moment so i’ll just have to do it.
