A member asked:
Can prozac (fluoxetine) make you a little hyper in the start up process before it calms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Talk to your doctor: Please talk to the doctor that is giving you your medication. SSRIs, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, including Prozac, (fluoxetine) can cause anxiety when you first start taking them. However, this can also be a sign of a different condition called bipolar. Either way, you should discuss this with the doctor treating you. I hope you feel better soon!
