In reply to prozac 40mg, posted by lexman on August 5, 2004, at 14:21:53
I started at 20mg and went up to 100mg which is actually 20mg higher then recommended max dose. All SE's you have mentioned went away for me after 2 to 3 months. However, I noticed my unipolar depression lift dramatically in 2.5 weeks. I took Prozac for over 7 years until it finally pooped out. I am currently taking Lexapro which is supposedly an improved combo of Prozac and Celexa. It took 45 days, but Lexapro also dramatically lifted my depression. I have been on Lex for nearly 2 months now. Good luck with Prozac. It was a good med for me for 7 years.
