Hi Amie,
I'm still taking the Prozac -- only 10 mg. because I have a low tolerance for meds --but I am going to decrease it to 5 mg. and maybe get off of it altogether ... it does kill my sex drive, but the worst side effect is horrible anxiety! I'm not sure what to do about it; the anxiety has gotten a lot worse since I increased the dosage. I'm putting in a call to my pdoc tomorrow.No, the Wellbutrin doesn't give me a headache, but does cause some irritation/agitation at first. I went to a lower dose and I was able to work up to a higher dose (200 mg now) with no problem.
Hope your headaches go away! Are you going to try another AD in place of the Prozac?
hang in there!

> thanks for the info... did you stop the prozac? i was so bad yesterday that i even thought about using the prozac again although i HATED the side effects. if today is bad, i may use the klonopin since i don't have to leave the house today.
> does the wellbutrin give you headaches? i've heard they will fade with time....hope so!

I was on proazc 20mg for pmdd for about a month. it worked wonders but the sexual side-effects were terrible...so i visited my gyn and he said to try klonopin...i filled that rx, but didn't use it...i got on wellbutrin sr 150mg/2x day about 2 weeks ago. i don't think it's working yet....after reading some of these threads, i wonder if i should use the klonopin with wellbutrin. i thought about using the prozac like sarafem (only during day 10-14 of cycle), but i'm scared of the sexual side effects coming back. any suggestions? i'm still a mean witch to everyone and can't control my emotions (scream all the time & no patience).
