In reply to PROZAC DOSE: Should I increase It?, posted by Joy on January 23, 2001, at 11:02:05
Hello There,
I was on 20mg a day for almost three months and I then noticed it was not working as well for me. I talk to my Psych and we decided to increase it to 30mg and it helped. I would suggest staying with the 20mg for awhile ... especially if it is doing well for you. With a drug like Prozac it is an individual thing ... more is not necessarily better. And be sure if you want to increase the dose you talk to your Dr. first.
Amy> Hi. I am on 20 mg of Prozac for almost 3 weeks. I started Prozac while weaning off Zoloft which I was on for 7 weeks. I feel pretty good on Prozac but am interviewing for jobs this week and possibly the next few weeks. I see my psych in 2 weeks. I was thinking of trying 30 mg of Prozac to how it works; would I feel better or worse? I have never had side effects from this med. I do take .5 xanax generic 40 minutes before bedtime for the last 3 months. Should I try 30 mg or stay at 20? I could always go back to 20 if the 30mg did not work as well, right? Any opiniions?Thanks
