    Hi folks!
    I have just put 'prozac' into the search box and luckily found this thread.

    I've just been prescribed prozac and I am wondering if anyone else could share their side effects please? I had the leaflet but promptly lost it after I put it in a safe place to read later..

    Both my kids (16months & nearly 3) are ill at the mo and so I'm not sure if it's a viral thing - I have their sore throat and bad nausea - or if it's the pills. I started them five days ago and dread taking each one as I feel so horrible quite quickly afterwards.

    So far sweating and nausea like horrible morning sickness has proved to be the worst, along with insomnia (I can't move as I'm so tired, but I can't sleep either). It wouldn't be so bad but as a stay at home mum I don't get time off :rolleyes:

    All advice would be welcomed. I'm not best pleased about being on them as I didn't realise fluoxetine was prozac until I got home..I've been on nortriptyline for a bit of post natal depression but the dr changed it as soon as she found out I've finished feeding the baby. I know she has my best interests at heart I'm just a bit freaked out as prozac seems to have such a stigma attached to it.

    Thanks folks,
    Best wishes

    Hi Lucy
    Welcome, hopefully someone will give you more insight into Prozac that i can - i am on them at the moment and i personally didn't have any side effects at all, but i'm also finding that they haven't done anything with my condition either..
