Prozac seems a bit extreme for anxiety to me. I would have thought Citalopram/Cipralex would be better. Go back to your GP an explain how you're feeling. Be aware though that you will have a headache for the first few days after increasing a dose.



It is a disconnection from the two. I would go back to the doctor that prescribed you on this medication that the prozac is not doing what it is set out to do.

personal experience on taking medication myself.



Prozac is an antidepressant, you should be taking something else for your anxiety. Try to visit a psychiatrist for an appropriate drug. Good luck.
