Stopped prozac after two days, now having pain in lower abdomen?!

Question: Stopped prozac after two days, now having pain in lower abdomen?

I took 10 mg of prozac once a day for two days, then stopped because I didn't like the effects it was giving me. (Felt emotionless) It's been about 4-5 days since I've been off of it, but I've now had lower abdominal pains, specifically on the left side. Could this be related? Should I see a doctor?

Answers:

Prozac is meant to be taken over a long period of time and it is not meant to stop suddenly. Just like with any medicatio you may experience sidfe effects and withdrawal symptoms if stop medication suddenly. Please notify your MD if these symptoms get worse. It may taek 5-10 more days to get over these effects so remain on clear liquids and other foods as you tolerate them.

I had the same problem when I tried it the first couple days. Didn't touch it again! Everything has side affects and antidepressants have a ton... It can take a few days to get out of your system, but should get better soon... cymbalta had the same effect as well. Its hit & miss! Remeron 15 mg. @ night has been the best, any higher, weight gain is an issue with many. course I'm just a patient, w/pain & sleep disorders. Who wouldn't get deppressed... you should be ok, just start with really low dose till u know what works for u. Good Luck!
