Hi All,

Can anyone advise what the side effects (if any) are if I was to increase my 20mg Fluoxetine to 40mg and anything else I should consider before upping my levels?

I have been on the 20mg since September and although I feel a lot better my anxiety seems to increase when I am away from my comfort blanket (i.e my normal day to day things like work etc) and the thing that I am worrying about at the moment is I am due to Fly to Australia on Xmas Day and already anxious about being away (and ruining the holiday for everyone!)

My GP said he can give me extra diazipam for the flight and thinks the increase would help whilst away and can always decrease in the New Year?

Any suggestions would help?

Thanks all
