A member asked:
Is pupil dilation (mydriasis) normal when starting fluoxetine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not usually: Fluoxetine (prozac) is not usually associated with pupil dilation, although the pupils may be slightly less reactive to light. The medicine is a selective seratonin reuptake inhibitor (ssri) and can cause dry mouth, dry eyes and other side effects.
