Calling Teppy the Drug Goddess: is itching a common side effect of Prozac? I'm on the generic, and I've just realized that the maddening itchiness on my legs started around the same time I started it. I so rarely get side effects, and was hoping the Prozac would be helpful.
That's my girl... That's my good girl.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
is itching a common side effect of Prozac?
That's probably an allergic reaction. I'd stop taking it and see your doctor to try a different antidepressant.

I think I'd rather be anxious than itching like this. Dammit.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
There are many ADs to try. You can control your anxiety AND be itch-free.

Absolutely. Zoloft worked really well for my anxiety, and Lexapro is helping it pretty well, too. I hate my anxiety enough to be willing to try more than 1 medication.

I've been on Lexapro a couple of times, and I was never sure it actually did anything. Generic Xanax had me walking around with my fists clenched all the time. Ah, well, another thing to add to the list My Drugs And Me.
edit: Why so tricksy, brains!

Citalopram has done me well for the last few years.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Generic Xanax had me walking around with my fists clenched all the time.
Ah, someone else who had the opposite reaction to Xanax than intended...
Effexor only makes me itch if I take the recommended two doses a day. At one dose, there's no itching, and it still works.
Last two days I've had an intractable headache. Nothing I throw at it makes any difference. This means the Red Army is on its way, and I'm thinking about IUDs again. It could be 3 more years before I finally hit menopause, and I'm so sick of all this hormone BS.

A peaceful menopause is bliss.
