> prozac long-term can cause apathy. apparently, its also causing tardive dyskinesia over the (very) long term in some people, so that's something to look out for.
TD with SSRIs is still a very rare occurrence. Certainly more rare than TCAs. Neither a reason to discontinue the use of either, both of which have had millions of patient-years by now. Yes, there are some isolate cases of TD but they're somewhat different, and definately long-term.
