Like any medication, Fluoxetine can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects include nausea, drowsiness, dizziness, anxiety, insomnia, loss of appetite, and sweating. These are generally mild and often improve within the first 1-2 weeks of treatment.
Serious or long-term effects can include mood swings, thoughts of suicide or self-harm, or sexual side effects. It’s important to talk about potential side effects and interactions with your prescriber.
