hi! i just lowered my prozac dose to 50 mg this past saturday. I was previously on 60 mg for 6 weeks and still felt very jittery. I called my doc today and we decided to lower again to 40 mg. the past few days, i have woken up jittery and anxious. i will get waves of jitters throughout the day, but have had all day today. i had 1/2 caff coffee at 8 am this morning and otherwise, nothing else with caffeine. i dont know for sure if it's the pro, i am assuming it is, or i am just extra anxious? i know i am about to get my period, so that could be a factor. anyway--my doc is semi-concerned and said she wants me to check in again in a few days and she would consider tapering me off and trying lexapro. anyone tried that before? how is it different? THANKS!
Hi! I would definitely say it's the flu causing it. It will make you feel more anxious until you're on the right dose and it's settled. How were you on the 40mg before? How long were you on it before your doc upped it to 60?
So, I actually got off of the Prozac. It was way to much. I jumped from 150 Zoloft to 60 of pro, then reduced. I started lexapro. Day four. 5 mg for a week then 10 mg and so on. No idea how it will
Go...
How are you feeling so far? I have no experience with lexapro unfortunately
