> Alternate day dosing is fine with Prozac, it has a very long duration of action. Some people even take it once weekly! As well as the usual tablets and capsules, Prozac is also available as a 90mg capsule called Prozac Weekly.

> Edyeah, I've heard of Prozac weekly. I've gotten conflicting reports on how long Prozac works on the system. What is the real length? How long does a 20 mg dose work on the body? I'm desperately trying to understand how this medicine might be working in my body. BTW, I called the doc about my meds today, and the nurse said it would be fine to try taking it every other day. I was calling because I wanted to know if I could switch to something else, because I never had this much trouble with Celexa or Paxil. I'm getting so frustrated, I feel like asking to go back on Paxil, to hell with the sexual side effect! I NEVER had any problems (with my anxiety) on Paxil, just made me gain 20 lbs and I had trouble getting "ready" for intercourse. Celexa was awesome (NO side effects), but it pooped out. Oh, but those were the days... :-\
