Suggest Dosage For Prozac

Consultation
Detailed Answer:
Hello, and thanks for your question.
An increase of Prozac from 20mg to 40mg is not too fast or too high. Prozac 20mg is a starter dose -- a therapeutic dose is normally 60mg or 80mg -- so this increase is appropriate in getting you closer to a therapeutic dose. Prozac is much more effective and safe than a benzo or Ambien, so this course of action is wise.
