A member asked:

I was on fluoxetine and a ziprasidone for moderate to severe generalized anxiety disorder. i developed gynecomastia, low libido, weight gain and stretch marks. pa recently stopped the meds. when should the side effects i experience subside?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

May be a while: Gynecomastia &wt gain from ziprasidone which takes at most 2 days to get out of body so the wt gain will stop but loosing it is another thing, the gynecomastia is considered reversible with in 6mo to 1 yr of onset. Prolactin level-causing the issue- should be back to nml in 1-2mo. https://www.pharmaco-vigilance.eu/content/drug-induced-gynecomastia low libido-fluoxetine can take wks to mo. to go.
