In reply to Prozac and anxiety, posted by Crystal on March 28, 2001, at 8:47:47
Hi Crystal,
I also took Paxil and was always hungry though it did work for my anxiety and depression. I take Prozac now and have great results, but I had to go to 40 mg after four weeks. This dose helps me a lot. I take generic Xanax before bedtime. I have lost 5 or 6 pounds in two months on Prozac. It works well for me, but you have to play around with the dose. Buspar combined with Prozac works well for anxiety in many people; but yur dose may need to be adjusted. Good luck.

> Hi all,
> what is the amount of time it would take prozac to have theraputic affect on anxiety. I am currently taking buspar and prozac for two months but still have some anxiety. I was previously on paxil which worked wonderfully. Do I need to switch to a more sedating SSRI like zoloft?
