I'm taking the generic form of Prozac (Fluoxetine). I've heard that the generic isn't as effective as Prozac, but I'm pleased with Fluoxetine.
I know that many posted about it being activating, but it makes me sleepy so I take my 10mg. at night. All SSRI have made me sleepy with the exception of Zoloft.
When I was taking 20-40 mg. I did not have an appetite. Which was good because I had put on weight from taking Lexapro.
It was very easy for me to decrease from 40mg. to 5mg. and now back up to 10mg.
I've just recently combined Wellbutrin along with Fluoxetine in hopes of improving my mood and ridding myself of this derealization.
God Bless

> My next med combination is going to be Klonopin (just until Xanax XR is released), Mirapex (for anhedonia and motivation), and Prozac. Just looking for ANY and ALL experiences y'all have had with Prozac. I've tried it before at 20mg, for two months. No side effects. But I know the dose needs to be raised higher.
