    Question Increasing dose

    I've been on 20mg Fluoxetine for 4wks now & haven't felt much change, was on this dose a few years ago & that suited me fine, doctor advised me on Monday to increase to 40mg so this is my 2nd day on this dose.
    Just wondered if anyone felt different or any side effects when increasing their dose as I feel really weird & spaced out & even more dizzy than before, I didn't have any side effects when I started on 20mg & not sure if I am now or if it is just my head playing silly tricks on me again.

    Many thanks x

    If you never had any side effects to begin with you were darn lucky! It's unlikely therefore to be because of the fluoxetine now and probably your anxiety playing tricks again.
