Prozac -
Regardless of whatever the drugs involved with
the welfare of your health issue it is
important that you never misuse any drugs you are
taking. Drug overdoses are quite common
although unintentionally meant in many cases
where death has occurred.
Prozac
is an antidepressant in a group of drugs
called selective serotonin reuptake
inhibitors (SSRIs). Prozac affects
chemicals in the brain that may become
unbalanced and cause depression, panic
anxiety or obsessive-compulsive symptoms.
OCD is a condition that is said to affect
over 2% of the population. People with
OCD will experience symptoms of a
different nature due to their compulsions
and
severity
of the disease.
Prozac is used to treat
major depressive disorders, bulimia
nervosa (an eating disorder)
obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic
disorder, and premenstrual dysphoric
disorder (PMDD). Doctors who prescribe
Prozac to patients may have done so for
other purposes other to those listed
above.
Never
mix medications or that of taking another
persons prescription as this can cause
serious health problems to rise or more
scary fatal. Do not take Prozac together
with pimozide (Orap), thioridazine
(Mellaril), or a monoamine oxidase
inhibitor (MAOI) such as isocarboxazid
(Marplan), phenelzine (Nardil),
rasagiline (Azilect), selegiline
(Eldepryl, Emsam), or tranylcypromine
(Parnate).
Although tablets
pills creams lotions etc are there for you to
heal and cure a condition they can also cause
serious side affects. It’s funny how you orally
take a drug in belief it can help only to find
out that taking antidepressants can induce
thoughts of suicide at some time.(Not in all
cases of consumption).
Prozac is the only
antidepressant that is FDA-approved for use in
children suffering with depression, yes that’s
right children to can suffer from depression.
If your child shows signs of this disorder have
them seen right to away before the depression
has time to develop into a more serious
stage.
Prozac is a
regular drug used to help with discomforting
symptoms, but should symptoms like mood or
behavior changes, anxiety, panic attacks,
trouble sleeping, or if you feel impulsive,
irritable, agitated, hostile, aggressive,
restless, hyperactive (mentally or physically),
more depressed, or have thoughts about suicide
or harming yourself or that of others then you
have to consult your doctor right
away.
SSRI
antidepressants may cause serious or
life-threatening lung problems in newborn
babies whose mothers take Prozac during
pregnancy. Sudden total restriction on the
intake of the drug can throw you into a relapse
of depression. If you are unsure about anything
causing you reason for concern then talk to
your doctor If you become pregnant while taking
Prozac, do not stop taking the medication
without first consulting your nurse or GP
first.
