In reply to Prozac and anxiety, posted by KarenRB53 on September 27, 2004, at 7:41:21
The only thing that I can think of is Strattera or Ritalin, or a different stimulant. These drugs have a calming effect on many people (but not all) and are often taken with antidepressants such as Prozac.
My antidepressant is Lexapro. Several months a go I needed something to calm me down. I added Strattera and it did (and still does) make me more calm and focused.
> Does anyone know the best medication to take with Prozac for anxiety? I've tried all the other SSRI's and only Prozac works for my depression, however, it causes me to be anxious and agitated. I take Ativan but I wondered if there was something that could be taken with Prozac that would last all day instead of having to take the Ativan several times during the day. Karen
