- Is this the same as Prozac?
- Yes. Fluoxetine is the active ingredient in Prozac, and this is the generic form. Generics contain the same active ingredient at the same strength but may use different inactive fillers.
- What is the 10 mg dose used for?
- 10 mg is the lowest tablet strength. Prescribers often use it to start treatment, for people sensitive to side effects, or for slow dose changes. Many adults move to 20 mg or higher under a doctor's plan.
- How long until it works?
- Sleep, appetite and energy can change in the first 1 to 2 weeks, but full antidepressant effect usually takes 4 to 6 weeks. Do not stop early without talking to your prescriber.
- Can I stop it suddenly?
- No. Stopping abruptly can cause dizziness, irritability and flu-like symptoms. Tapering is usually done over weeks, and the 10 mg tablet makes small steps easier.
- Is $20.79 a good price?
- It is the only new price listed, $20.79 at Petco.com as of November 4, 2026, so there is no recent range to compare. Check whether your insurance or a pharmacy discount program beats it.
