A member asked:
How long does it take for fluoxetine to leave system after 4 doses 20mg? would i experience any withdrawal effects?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Great question : It can take up to two weeks for Prozac (fluoxetine) to completely clear from the body. This is especially true for long term use. Withdrawal is not likely after just fours doses.
