Hello all...
I started on Fluoxetine back in April at 20 mg per day. Then upped the dose to 40mg in April;neither dose really helped. I've now tapered off, taking my final dose exactly 7 days ago. So after 8 months on this medication, roughly how long until it is all metabolised? Or at least completely inactive in my body? When would I be safe to consume Amitriptyline? Or anything else Serotonergic?
WARNING:Codeine does not work at all whilst on this medication. Would Carbamazepine (A potent CYP450 pathway inducer) counteract the CYP inhibition of the Fluoxetine?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
