Is Laser Treatment Safe To Have While On Fluoxetine?
Hi, I was prescribed 20mg Fluoxetine 29th July 2016 and have been taking it since. I am also undergoing laser treatment on my face and neck. I have my 8th session tomorrow and was wondering if its still okay to continue with laser whilst I am taking fluoxetine.

Hi,
Fluoxetine does not have any interactions with laser treatment. You can take the medication. However, it is advisable to inform the dermatologist that you are on fluoxetine before the laser session.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
