Description
Prozac 20Mg 28Cap contains fluoxetine as its active ingredient. Fluoxetine is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressant. It works by increasing the levels of serotonin, a natural substance in the brain that helps regulate mood, sleep, appetite, and other functions.
Prozac 20mg capsules are commonly prescribed to treat various conditions, including:
- Major depressive disorder (MDD): Persistent sadness, loss of interest, and other symptoms that interfere with daily life.
- Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD): Recurrent, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions).
- Panic disorder: Sudden episodes of intense fear that trigger severe physical reactions.
- Bulimia nervosa: An eating disorder characterized by a cycle of binge eating followed by behaviors that prevent weight gain.
- Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD): A severe form of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) with significant mood symptoms.
The “20Mg” indicates the strength of fluoxetine in each capsule, which is 20 milligrams. The “28Cap” signifies that the pack contains 28 capsules.
Prozac 20Mg Capsules are used to treat depression, OCD, panic disorder, bulimia nervosa, and PMDD by affecting serotonin levels in the brain.
Directions for use: Always take Prozac 20mg exactly as prescribed by your doctor. The usual starting dose for depression, OCD, and panic disorder is 20 mg once daily, typically in the morning. The dose may be adjusted by your doctor depending on your response. For bulimia nervosa, the usual dose is 60 mg once daily. For PMDD, the dosing schedule may vary. The capsules should be swallowed whole with water and can be taken with or without food. It is important to take Prozac regularly at the same time each day. Do not stop taking Prozac suddenly without consulting your doctor, as this can lead to withdrawal symptoms.
Important Information: Prozac is a prescription medication. Inform your doctor if you are allergic to fluoxetine or any other SSRIs or any other ingredients in the capsule. Tell your doctor about your medical history, especially if you have a history of seizures, bipolar disorder, liver problems, kidney problems, bleeding disorders, or glaucoma. Prozac can interact with other medications, including other antidepressants, MAO inhibitors, and certain pain relievers, which can lead to serious side effects like serotonin syndrome. It is crucial to inform your doctor about all other drugs you are taking, including prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications, and herbal supplements. Prozac may increase the risk of suicidal thoughts and behaviors, especially in children, adolescents, and young adults, particularly during the first few months of treatment or when the dose is changed. Monitor yourself closely for any changes in mood or behavior and report them to your doctor immediately. Be cautious when driving or operating machinery until you know how Prozac affects you. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your doctor before taking Prozac. Keep out of reach of children. Store at room temperature away from moisture and light.
