I never heard that prozac was derived from diphenhydramine! So if prozac is supposed to be energizing why is it making me so tired? I found this possible explanation. Benadryl knocks me out. Does Benadryl=Prozac?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoxetine
"Fluoxetine was derived from diphenhydramine, an antihistamine found to inhibit reuptake of the neurotransmitter serotonin.Compared to other popular selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), fluoxetine has a strong energizing effect."
If prozac doesn't energize me what will?
