Can fluoxetine 20mg capsules make you really messed up?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normally not: This medication can be very helpful for mood and anxiety disorders. However, it has the potential to trigger mania or hypomania in someone who is bipolar. It does have side effect potential as well.
