I've been prescribed Fluoxetine 90mg Delayed Release Capsules for my OCD, and I'm curious about others' experiences. Has anyone else tried this weekly dosage form? How has it worked for you? I'm particularly interested in hearing about any side effects or benefits you've noticed. Also, I'd love to know if anyone has managed to transition from daily fluoxetine to this weekly form without any issues. And I’m wondering how this medication compares to others for treating OCD.

My psychiatrist said it’s a great option because it’s convenient and has fewer side effects compared to other SSRIs. I haven’t noticed any big issues, which is a huge win for me.

I’ve been on Fluoxetine for a while now, and I’m a fan. The delayed-release formula is much easier to manage and I don't have any of the weird dreams or nausea that people talk about. Highly recommend!

I haven’t had any luck with this medication. The side effects are terrible and I keep waking up with weird dreams. Not everyone gets the same results, but I just couldn’t handle it.

Fluoxetine 90mg helped me a lot. I was struggling with depression, and after taking this, I feel like my life has improved so much. No side effects here, just improved mood and energy levels.

My pharmacist mentioned some new research on serotonin syndrome with Fluoxetine. Be careful and definitely discuss this in depth with your doctor. It’s not a huge risk, but it’s something to be aware of.

I'm still on the fence about this. I've heard mixed reviews and I'm not sure if I should try it. Has anyone experienced any serious side effects like serotonin syndrome? I’m really worried about that.

It definitely helped me shake off some anxious thoughts, and for me it only took a few weeks. Have you all had the same experience? Or did it take a lot longer

I switched from daily to the weekly form, and it was a nightmare. I had some really bad withdrawal symptoms. Might not be for everyone, especially if you have a history of withdrawal issues.
