Horror Stories about Fluoxetine Withdrawal (Magrilan)

Postby WoollyAllen » Wed Nov 14, 2012 12:37 pm

Hello all,

I'm a newbie here, and I have been wondering about all those withdrawal symptoms people have talked about both on YouTube & in articles online, with regards to dropping Fluoxetine (aka Prozac; in Singapore - Magrilan) without tapering off (aka weaning). Is it all that true?

I have been on a 20mg twice a day (once in the morning and once in the evening) for a month now, and just last night I have stopped taking my evening dose. However, I am still depending on the prescription of Zoplicone to sleep every night. Nothing else seem to be able to knock me out for at least a decent 4 hours sleep.

In this regard, can anyone advice or tell me what I can expect in the days to come if I were to discontinue my morning dose as well? So far, I'm feeling ok.
