In reply to giving up prozac, posted by mona on June 29, 1999, at 0:30:10
Your post is a bit confusing. Has this person
completely stopped Prozac and started drinking? In that
case, the alcohol is probably being used to relieve her
depression in place of Prozac. Or is she drinking concurrently with
the use of Prozac, which could mean any number of things:
a larger dose of Prozac is required, or a different antidepressant,
or a mood-regulator if she is really bipolar, etc. No matter-
most AD's come with warning labels against mixing with alcohol.
In any case, unless directed by her doc, she should
NOT use any herb-remedy while taking other prescribed
AD's. But if she's addicted to "street-drugs" then it may be necessary
to check into a clinic that specializes in detox (in Germany?)
See if you can get some additional info.
