In reply to No response to Prozac after 5 wks, should I quit?, posted by J on July 1, 2001, at 19:24:38
It sounds like you are getting a partial response. Just not a complete response. So that's a good sign. But 5 weeks is not enough time for a full response. I would give it another month. Why are you on such a high dose? Had you previously been on a lower dose?
> I've been taking 60mg Prozac for more than five weeks now. Sometimes I experience what I can only describe as a "quietning of my mind," which is the reason that I started Prozac - to get rid of constant obsessive thoughts. This response happens usually happens as soon as I wake up, but it doesn't last.
