Yes: I believe that Lovan is fluoxetine, commonly called Prozac. Some people do get strange feelings when they stop these medications, and these sensations should go away. Remember to be vigilant for signs of returning depression, if this is what you were taking it for. Hopefully, this will not happen, but sometimes it does.
