Title: Advice on starting fluoxetine
Post by: Celticmandy1972 on September 16, 2025, 08:39:11 AM
Hi i have been given fluoxetine from doctors for anxiety to do with menopause but i am waiting to see if i notice a difference with my changed and upped patches first as i have only had the patches changed 3 weeks, i am not an anxious person for anything but hate the feeling from menopause and can anyone tell me if they were fine when they started fluoxetine because they gave me setraline before and i felt horrendous and told them to put on my records i never ever want that again and just wondered if fluoxetine would be the same and i know sometimes these take a while to settle but just need a wee bit advice from someone who is on fluoxetine.
