| WARNING!
When trying to withdraw from many psychiatric drugs, patients can develop serious and even life-threatening emotional and physical reactions. In short, it is dangerous not only to start taking psychiatric drugs but also can be hazardous to stop taking them. Therefore, withdrawal from psychiatric drugs should be done under clinical supervision. Principles of drug withdrawal are discussed in Your Drug May Be Your Problem: How and Why to Stop Taking Psychiatric Medications, by Peter R. Breggin, M.D. and David Cohen, Ph.D. Other information on Prozac and Prozac-like drugs can be found in Talking Back to Prozacby Peter R. Breggin, M.D. and Ginger Ross Breggin. |
