I started on fluoxetine last Friday at 20mg, took another 20mg on Saturday. On Sunday I felt like death warmed up. Dizziness, nausea, nasty taste in mouth. So I did not take any more. Here I am on Wednesday evening and still feeling awful, with the same symptoms and a tight feeling in the chest and also feeling very tense and confused. Could just 40mg of fluoxetine cause all this?

It could because fluoxetine is a long acting drug and even 2 doses will stay in your system for quite a few days. You should go back to your doctor - there are other medications you could try.

Iv had that weird like kind of metal but not metal taste. When u get it, it's there forthe whole day. It's like you ain't swallowed it right. The only thing I can do to make it better is keep drinking hottea. Xx
