High dose prozac (fluoxetine): That dose may not be safe. I have never had a patient on 90 mgs per day. There are a lot of other strategies a board certified psychiatrist would generally have and be able to apply in the case of someone needing ultra high doses of medications.

Maybe not: Though that would be a high daily dose, there is a weekly form of Prozac (fluoxetine) that is 90 mgs. If it is a daily dose, perhaps a med change is worth considering.
