A member asked:

Feel like my mouth number or some.my tongue feel like i lost a tooth or sum. i been on prozac (fluoxetine) foe a week?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See MD, dentist: Could be a side-effect of prozac (fluoxetine). Go back to the prescribing doctor and tell him your symptoms. A trip to the dentist is also in order since your symptoms are oral related. Your symptoms may not be related to the Prozac (fluoxetine) at all. The dentist will do a thorough exam to determine what's wrong.
