yes, it can cause mania, but its ... the only antidepressant that is recommended for bipolar disorder, the depression part. Lady when i was in psych, she was put on lithium and prozac, they use it frequently in bipolar cases, i dont know why but fluoxetine is commonly used in depression phases of bipolar disorder.
I don't why, but its the recommended med, and yes, oh yes it can cause prozac mania, without a mood stablizer, i started lamictal because i was in hypomania phase on prozac, but usally they use lithium with prozac in some bipolar cases. That's reports, things i've watched on tv about mental health.
