In reply to Provigil, now PROZAC?!?!, posted by yoyoma on May 15, 2004, at 0:46:42
Hey! I take Provigil with Prozac and it has been really good. Prozac alone has worked for me in the past but this time around it was causing me more anxiety plus fatigue. Believe it or not, the anxiety from the Prozac is worse for me if I don't take the Provigil (go figure that one). I couldn't tolerate Zoloft and the other AD's didn't really help. Sometimes the initial anxiety that you may get from Prozac fades over time. If not you can often start at a low dose and gradually move up if needed. I've taken anywhere from 5mg to 60mg of Prozac and 10mg seems to work very well with minimal side effects. I also take only 100mg of Provigil divided as 50mg early a.m. - 50mg early p.m.
Prozac can be wonderful. Start low and go slow.
Lots of Luck!
