extract -

Keep all of your doctor’s appointments so that your progress can be checked.



The symptoms of depression or other psychiatric conditions may include thoughts of harming yourself or suicide. These symptoms may continue or get worse during the first one or two months of treatment until the full antiderpressant effect of PROZAC becomes apparent. This is more likely to occur in young adults under 25 years of age.

If you or someone you know is demonstrating any of the following warning signs, contact your doctor or a mental health professional right away or go to the nearest hospital for treatment:




worsening of your depression



thoughts or talk of death or suicide



thoughts or talk of self-harm or harm to others



any recent attempts at self-harm



increase in aggressive behaviour, irritability or any other unusual changes in behaviour or mood

All mentions of suicide or violence must be taken seriously.
