Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
Prozac is an antidepressant which has a long half life and plenty of drug interaction. If you want to try dex then I would advice you to change your natidepresssant to escitalopram or sertraline which has the least interaction.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
In future if you wish to contact me directly, you can use the below mentioned link:
