Guest guest Posted April 21, 2002 Report Share Posted April 21, 2002 80 mg four times a day. So total of 240 mg? Or 4 20mg capsules? I think I will try a drink and see how it goes. If I start to feel funny I will not take any more prozac on the trip. I'll give it a go on Tuesday night. Tamara --- gina muollo wrote: > > Wow!! 60mg a day!! I am on 40.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2002 Report Share Posted April 21, 2002 Tamara, I'm sure it is not the same for everyone everywhere - but about 2 weeks ago, I went out with Shaun and got myself BUTT DRUNK. I mean, to the point he carried me into the house LOL. I got sick, but I did not die. OK? ) Grace Re: I just had a cow > 80 mg four times a day. So total of 240 mg?

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2002 Report Share Posted April 21, 2002 The effect Prozac has on alcohol is a mild to moderate one. Like Jacquie is saying, it tends to get you drunk quicker, and you may feel very buzzy when you're not quite buzzed, etc. I was on an antibiotic once that had a severe reaction with alcohol, which I didn't know before drinking. I drank half a glass of wine, and I thought I was going to die on the spot. It was not pretty. So.... I think if you were going to have a reaction to drinking + prozac, it would show up pretty quickly. At least all of us there with you will know what to tell the EMT's when they get there LOL.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2002 Report Share Posted April 21, 2002 I don't know, . It can't hurt. I made my reservations online through www.citysearch.com and obviously - something went amuck. Thankfully, I did call to confirm, so it's all okay now, but for a moment there, giving birth to a cow was less traumatic.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2002 Report Share Posted April 21, 2002 Tamara - I drink whilst taking Prozac ;-) I do not drink alcohol to wash down the Prozac, but I do drink. However, I have not been able to drink as much since I started taking it, and even one glass of wine can offer up a really bad morning. Might be different for you....Just a warning.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2002 Report Share Posted April 21, 2002 Lemme scare you Tamara. When I was on Prozac, my psych had me on 90 mg a day. And that wasn't TOUCHING it. Next go roud will be Zoloft, and possibly Buspar. I hate meds. tamara laskowski wrote: >Wow!! 60mg a day!! Â I am on 40. Â I thought that was as >high as they went with that.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2002 Report Share Posted April 21, 2002 Tamara, I am like you. I have to have a lot before I get a buzz to. I can normally put back somewhere between 12-20 beers before I start to get happy. So I start drinking before I hit the bars to. Bob and I went out last night. First time out with out the kids. He takes thme every where. I really have to talk to this guy. Any way. I started drinking before he came over and he was shocked. There was 6 empty bottles on the counter before we left. Oh yes he paid for the sitter to. Lori Re: I just had a cow Well, in that case, I can be cheap and get a buzz! Bonus!! I have a really high tolerance usually and have to do like 4 or 5 shots to get a buzz going. It gets expensive. So usually if I am planning to drink I take a few shots before going to the bar or whatever. I am pretty cheap! LOL! Seriously, I do not hardly ever drink....like 3 or 4 times a year maybe. But it takes so much. Everyone else has a beer and starts to get happy. It is definetely not fair. Anyone else on Prozac ever had a problem with mixing some drinks with it?
