My friend has been taking Prozac for about three weeks. She says she's so fatigued all the time and doesn't feel any better. Plus she's hoarse all the time since shes's used it. I only took it a couple weeks and didn't get that. Any advice would sure be helpful. Thanks folks!!!!!!

There are many factors to consider. Why did this person take the Prozac in the first place. Was see depressed, or just going through some tough times. Was she seeing a Psychiatrist or a general practice Doctor. Some Doctors prescribe Prozac for many different things. I think more information is needed.

I've been on citalopram (anti-depressant) for a few months now and still feel fatigued but the difference is i feel less depressed.

I'm not an expert on the subject but i know that you have to wait at least two weeks or more before getting the most benefit from your meds.

Your friend may need more time taking Prozac to feel the full effects or it could be that she isn't suited because they don't work for everyone.

Either way, its always best to go to the doctors for professional advice and guidance.

I hope your friend gets better, good luck.

One of the side effects is "DRY MOUTH" - siliva production is reduced in the mouth and therefore the throat also becomes dry. This is probably why she's hoarse all the time. Maybe honey would help, or keeping sucking lollies, or even one of those hydrating sprays fromt he chemist.

i was very tired for a while when i first started taking it. so much so that i thought i would fall asleep at a dinner party once. i don't remember being hoarse...it may be that it is sinus/allergy season. it did make my mom very mean. your friend should go back to the doctor and get something else. it may not be the one for her

to me there is not any truly reply good there may be you have got to do scales every day and every day attempt to pass greater and as soon as that occurs you hold doing after which in case you sing alto attempt to sing second soprano in order that your vocals will shift or difference but in addition do not unfastened your low notes you would be a goddess together with your low notes in opera you play all of the unhealthy components. whenever you begin sing with the second soprano you can also begin to believe out of position however as time progresses you're going to begin having the identical vocal variety as them. time and persistence is the important thing additionally
