A member asked:

Are 80mg prozac (fluoxetine) and 15mg mirtazpine a good combo?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: Prozac (fluoxetine) and mirtazpine are actually very similar medications in terms of mechanism of action. Medication combinations will affect each patient a bit differently. They are definitely safe to use together under the guidance of physician. If they are helping you feel better then I would say they are a great combo! :)
