Please talk to the doctor who prescribed Prozac to ascertain if a different antidepressant could be used to replace Prozac. In the meantime, start exercising. Begin with low intensity exercise such as walking and gradually increase the intensity so that you sweat profusely. It may take a few months for the full effect. Exercise as effective as medications for depression. Wish you good health!

Please discuss this with your Psychiatrist or Primary Care Provider who has your complete medical history. If you are not confident with your Doctor please see another for a second opinion.
