I have recently been feeling extremely tired, and my doc thinks it could be a side effect of the Celexa I am taking. She wants to take me off it and put me on Prozac? Any input...anyone else have this side effect with Celexa and anyone have comments as to what i should expect with Prozac?

Extremely tired. Can't stay awake in class and the first thing I want to do when I get home is sleep.

It could be a side effect. I'm also taking Celexa, and I notice that it does make me a little drowsier than normal. I think you should go with what you feel is the best decision. Is it only minor drowsiness (in other words, is it something that you can live with), or is it so bad that you can't live with it? If so, you probably should switch.

they are both in the same drug class (ssri) and basically work the same way, have the same potential side effects,etc. it could be worth a try to switch. some people tolerate one better than another. i take prozac for pms :) and have had no problems. And i actually lost weight
