Question: hello, i take 20 mg. of generic prozac every 24 hours and nexum... about a week ago i got off schedule and started taking at 3pm every day... id like to get back on my normal schedule, would it be ok to take both medications now, about 5-6 hours ahead of schedule? so about 18 hours apart of doses rather than 24 hours apart... just so i can get back on my morning schedule? thanks
