A member asked:
Could it be healthy to be on prozac (fluoxetine) for at least 3 weeks and have the same problems as well as new problems?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: It often takes 4 to 6 weeks to get high enough serotonin levels for Prozac (fluoxetine) to be effective. However, it is likely that side effects could be apparent much earlier.
