What Are The Withdrawal Side Effects Of Prozac?
Hello doctor, Ive recently decided to come off of my 40 mg prescription of prozac and i was just curious as to what the withdrawal effects may be ive been on prozac for a year and a half and have just been feeling very dull and emotionless on it. Whenever i stop taking it i feel generally happier.Any thoughts? Thanks you

HI
Well come to HCM
It is not advisable to stop the drug at once, but you can reduce the dose gradually in tapper manner to avoid the withdrawal although withdrawal would be less likely but better to stop this gradually instead, hope this information helps, take care, have a nice day.
