Reported Results |
| Benefits: | | I notice the benefit of being able to be calmer and not so "on edge". I am not so short tempered and I am able to handle situations that are mentally or emotionally challenging. I also notice the benefit of not being very emotional. My physician and I decided to wean me down to 20 mg. and when this happened, I noticed an immediate effect. I was very short tempered and "on edge". I was also not able to deal with situations that were mentally or emotionally challenging. I also was very tearful. Needless to say, my physician and I knew I needed to go back on the medication again. |
| Side effects: | | A slightly lowered libido, tiredness in the evening. Also notice I am not as tearful when dealing with emotionally challenging issues, which can have it's pros and cons. |
| Comments: | | I have been on Prozac for 12 years. I was titered starting with 20 mg. days, then 40 mg then 60 mg which is my current dose. |
