User Reviews for fluoxetine oral

I've been on this for almost 2 years. Started out at 20mg then increased to 40,then 60 then 80mg. I'm still depressed, angry, can't sleep. This drug is useless.

This is the second time I've been put on this medication for depression. The first time it really pulled me out of it, and I was quite bad off. This time, I can tell a definite difference in my mood, but still have days or moments of depression. It takes about 6 weeks to really kick in. I've been on it for five this time, so I'm hoping it will continue to improve. I've had no side effects from using this drug. Currently, I'm taking 20 mg once a day.

Works great,my kids are fun again and I don't long for the weekend to be over so I could go back to work. My hubby likes the new me too HOWEVER....I used to enjoy sex, now I can't even achieve an orgasm. I hope this gets better with time.

I've just started this medication & the only thing I regret...is that it makes me really drousy and nausious (when I don't eat w/it). I'll continue & hope to see a difference.

I'm not a witch anymore right before my period thanks to this drug.

I took this 7 years ago and stopped. I shouldn't have. I have Panic and PSS disorder. I went on a different medicine recently and didn't like it. This medicine has worked wonders for me before and I feel like I am my old self again.

I have used this medication for over a year now. I was going through a Divorce and I needed to take off the edge. It has made it somewhat easier to deal with my problems

When and if I should stop taking the medication.

I have suffered for several years with Anxiety Disorder. Once this medicine was given to me, I seen an instant change. At first the medicine made me quite drowsy, but once I adjusted to this side effect... it was all uphill from there!

I took this medication for several years. It worked for the irritability and depression associated with PMS. Side effects were sleepiness in the morning, I could sleep hours and hours when I had been struggling with insomnia and it affected my sexual response.

I was on this for two years and went off of it a few months ago. It helped me, but I didn't want to rely on a pill anymore. I've been fine without it but I did notice that it helped when I was on it. If I missed a dose though I felt sick.

Using it for only two weeks a month, did have an effect on me when I was off of it. It was hard for my body to accept the "highs" and "lows" of the SSRI

Its been a week and overall it is working great.

Worked really poorly for me, I felt physically sick most of the time I was on it, and did not notice any improvement in mood.

I can defenately tell if he hasn't taken his dose for the day. It really keeps him from getting depressed.

When i was first informed that i was suffering with depression i didnt take it very well yet i was willing to give the medecine a try. So far it has been about 12 weeks since ive been on the drug and i can say that unfortunatly i still dont see an improvement, i take it as directed by the doctor and i hate the side effects, dry mouth, it makes me a little dizy my palpitations are sometimes faster than ususal. Im still in the process of counseling so maybe the two together will help.

I take this every night and it has eased my bipolar condition. Does not go well with alcohol, caffeine or sugars.

This has been really easy for me to use. I have a fairly low dosage (30mg) and it was recently upped to 40mg. The only thing I can possibly compain about is that I have to take it in the morning or it gives me sleepless nights.
