What is Fluoxetine (Prozac)?

The first SSRI antidepressant, used for depression, OCD, panic disorder, and bulimia. Has a long half-life which can be helpful for missed doses.

Dosage & forms

Drug class: SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor)

10 mg, 20 mg, 40 mg capsules10 mg, 20 mg tabletsOral solution (20 mg/5 mL)

Typical dosing

Commonly 20 mg once daily in the morning; range 20–80 mg depending on the condition treated.

Long half-life means it leaves the body slowly, which can ease missed doses but delays dose changes.

Your clinician determines the right dose and form for you. Always follow the instructions on your prescription label.

Common side effects

Most side effects are mild and often ease within the first few weeks. Tell your clinician if any are bothersome or do not go away.

Nausea

Insomnia

Nervousness

Headache

Decreased appetite

Sexual side effects

Important safety information

  • Antidepressants carry a boxed warning for increased risk of suicidal thoughts in people under 25, especially in the first weeks of treatment or after a dose change. Seek help right away if mood worsens.

  • Rarely, combining serotonergic medications can cause serotonin syndrome (agitation, fast heart rate, fever, tremor). Tell your clinician about every medication and supplement you take.

  • Do not stop suddenly — your clinician will taper the dose to avoid discontinuation symptoms such as dizziness, flu-like feelings, or 'brain zaps.'

This information is educational and not a complete list of risks. It is not a substitute for advice from your clinician or pharmacist. In an emergency, call 911. If you are in crisis, call or text 988.
