Taking Prozac after surgery

Hi, I have been taking prozac since immediately after surgery.  First orally, then after a few weeks, the fluoxitine (generic) capsules with no problems.  I too am on 40mg per day........  good luck hun! lisa s  341/150  got down to 117 this past january!  toooo thin for me.... :)

Hello I had a question I see you take prozac . Me too it at times seem's to help me with my depression . But may I please ask you a few question's? Like does it make you sleepy? And have you been just so hungrey? I have been takeing 20 mg now for a month and these are the thing's I have noticed with me and I was hopeing somebody else who take's the same med's would understand me. I feel like I have a hangover feeling in the morning's just a pounding headache . Because I sleep so hard at night . And that's one thing I noticed I haft to take the prozac at night because It makes me really sleepy . And like I said I have so much hunger I have done so well with my band not now I am eating the house down . I do have emotinal eating problem's who does'nt ? But do you think that the prozac could be harming me buy eating the house down or is that all just me I really belive the prozac has helped me with life but I dont want it to mess me up with my weight I noticed I had these eating problems after a month on prozac I am getting another fill this will be my second one . Should I talk to the lap band Doc and ask him? Thank's so much for your help Wendy from Texas

I restarted mine 3 days after surgery and have had no problems.
