Can mild dry cough can be a side effect after increase of prozac dosage to 60mg from 40mg daily. have been on prozac since over 10 years but increased dosage recently. what is avg period after which positive effects noticed after dose increase?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Prozac: Per Drugs.Com although cough may occur with fluoxetine, the frequency not reported (which usually means it wouldn't be common). It may take 2 to 6 weeks to appreciate the full impact of dose increase.
