@2112richard, others here have discussed using Prozac (fluoxetine) as a bridge medication while tapering. Have you developed this plan with your doctor? How is the taper going?

I haven't yet but I have an appointment later this month. I did drop down to 25mg because I was taking 75mg. Maybe the transition will be easier with 25mg and whatever Prozac I may take. Symptoms of going from 50 to 25 have been present but nothing like missing a dose of 50mg one day.

Now my question is how best can I come off off 20mg of fluoxetine daily? The transition from desvenlafaxine to fluoxetine was very easy.
