Mishal, be especially wary of Serotonin Syndrome if you increase the dose of your selegiline which, as you know, loses selectivity for MAO-b at higher than normal doses. Even though you intend to stop Prozac first, remember it has a very long half life and can stay in the blood for 5 weeks after stopping.
