Do you want to wean?: If you have had recurrent bouts of depression, consider staying on it. One handy way to wean from anti-depressants is to change to prozac 20 mg daily for7-14days, then take it every other day for a week, then stop. Prozac has a long half-kive and because of this. It weans itself. Been helpful for my patients
