Hi

I've recently been prescribed with fluoxetine for PND. I find it very hard to sleep any way but these seem to keep me awake even more. also seem to have a bit of a headache all day. I was wondering if anyone else had/is taking these and experienced any problems? I have only been taking them for 7 days.

thanks

    Hi lynda - sorry you;re feeling rottenimage if you persevere with the prozac, you should find the symptoms ease in 2-3 weeks, also maybe try taking your dose first thing in the morning which may help with the sleep. I was on fluoxetine pre-pregnancy and found it a great drug (am now on duloxetine) but it took a bit of footering around with the dosage to strike gold with it.
