You can ask your doctor to prescribe dissolved Prozac. The standard version is 20 mg/5 mL. 5 mL is one teaspoon. With the oral solution, dose is proportional to the volume you swallow. To get exactly 8 mg Prozac, you would need to take 2 mL of the solution. 10 mg is 2.5 mL. And so on. 4 mg/mL is the concentration of the pediatric oral Prozac, but, I think it comes in generic forms now. That should be much cheaper.
With the liquid, you can take exactly the dose you want, without worrying about breaking pills or any of that.
