Ekg showed qt/qtc of 408/462. is this number too high? i take prozac and zyrtec daily. could that cause a prolonged qt and is it safe to take?

It's OK: Rule of Thumb is in general we consider QTc of 480+ as something to look at, and even some might consider more than 500 as significant

Punt: Leave the interpretation of your ECG to a cardiologist and the appropriateness of continuing on medication to the prescribing doc. In general, see: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3940069/
