Re: low dose prozac more effective AD than high dose?

Yes, I have always done well on lower doses. When I took celexa, 10mg was a theraputic dose. For me 10mg of prozac or 25mg of zoloft was also theraputic.

I have also had sucess with taking holidays, or taking medications on-off. For instance, I could take 10mg of fluoxetine every other day, or every third day.

There was a study done (I think it was on zoloft) which showed that a 5mg dose was as effective as 50mg with fewer side effects. Who knows, maybe a placebo effect.
