Taking 20 mg of prozac (fluoxetine) for 10 weeks in the morning makes me very tired can i take a couple of hours before bedtime?

Yes: If Prozac (fluoxetine) makes you drowsy but otherwise is helping, try taking a few hours before bedtime. Discuss with prescribing doctor who knows you best. Be sure to take same time every 24 hours. I hope this helps. Best wishes.
