I've just been prescribed Fluoxetine and I don't know much about it. Just wondered if anyone had used it and whether it was good or bad for them?
So far I've been feeling pretty sick but I'm glad I finally managed to get to the drs and do something about my depression.

Thanks for all your help

Hi Faye welldone for getting yourself to the doctors , going there and using healthboards is a good start. Fluoxetine is another name for prozac...Mandy

I've been on Fluoxetine (Prozac) for a little over a month now and I'm feeling pretty good. The depression has lifted and I have a lot more energy and I can enjoy people and life more. I started out taking 10mg for two weeks, and I had a little nausea, but it went away. Now I'm taking 20mg and I can do so on an empty stomach without any problems. Also, the sexual side effects are MUCH less than with any other ssri I've taken. All in all, I give Prozac two thumbs up...let's just hope it lasts!
