Definitely stay on 20 mg. Prozac has a long half life. It will continue to build up in your blood for atleast 8 weeks or so. If you feel OK now after only 3 weeks, I would stay at 20 for atleast 3 or 4 months. After that, only increase it if you really need to.

> Hi. I am on 20 mg of Prozac for almost 3 weeks. I started Prozac while weaning off Zoloft which I was on for 7 weeks. I feel pretty good on Prozac but am interviewing for jobs this week and possibly the next few weeks. I see my psych in 2 weeks. I was thinking of trying 30 mg of Prozac to how it works; would I feel better or worse? I have never had side effects from this med. I do take .5 xanax generic 40 minutes before bedtime for the last 3 months. Should I try 30 mg or stay at 20? I could always go back to 20 if the 30mg did not work as well, right? Any opiniions?Thanks
