Can Recalled OxyElite Pro Cause Schizo Effective Disorder?
I took oxyelite pro last year I did not know about the recall the lady at gnc said it was fine, but only two months after I started taking it I was diagnosed with schizo effective disorder. The thing is that once I was diagnosed and no longer took the pill just because my fiance hid the bottle because she thought it was somehow related to my state, I got better and didn t require psychosis medicine within a month of no longer taking it. Could this recalled drug have caused this?

Oxyelite pro contains an active ingredient called fluoxetine. Fluoxetine is an antidepressant. Fluoxetine can causes symptoms like abnormal thinking, confusion, emotional liability and others which are similar to the symptoms found in Schizoaffective disorder.
Yes oxyelite pro intake might have been the reason for the diagnosis. And it makes more sense to say that it is the reason as the stopping of oxyelite pro has made you fine.
Hope the above explanation helps you. Thanks and take care.
