What Causes Anxiety And Irritation While On Prozac?

Your medicines need optimization.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Thanks for asking your query here.
I understand your concern. Prozac is a good antidepressant. It can alleviate symptoms of depression in about 2-3 weeks of continuous use. It should not be combined with Adderall as Prozac may potentiate the adverse effects of Adderall. This may cause restlessness, anxiety, insomnia, irritability and anger. Already you are experiencing these symptoms. So it is better to optimise your therapy. In my opinion Adderall should be discontinued and only Prozac with increased dose of Xanax should be continued. Increased dose of Xanax will help in alleviating current symptoms of anxiety, terrible feeling and irritability. After 2-3 weeks the dose of Xanax may be tapered.
You may discuss these issues with your doctor.
Take care.
