switching from 20mg to 40mg of prozac, i’m scared. Has anyone had any side effect from going up from 20 to 40?

My only recommendation is to be careful drinking alcohol! With Prozac, I started at like 5 or 10 mg and take 60 now. Super easy transitions. Never noticed anything major or negative

I just did this a few weeks ago. You'll be fine. Albet a little nauseous and tired. Maybe a little more anxious for awhile. But the transition was much easier then the 10-20mg jump becausw im already used to having prozac in my system

I just wrote about this another persons question. When I started taking Prozac, I felt fine, but after a few months, I started feeling more depressed. I did some research and found out about the drug Bupropion aka Wellbutrin. It’s just helped me take the edge off the feeling I was having.
