I was perscribed Fluoxetine to take on Monday (first day off Cita today).

If I feel a need to start them tomorrow would it be ok?

    I think you should check with your doctor but I think they prefer you to wait.

    Give them a ring and ask

    I had to take a fluoxetine yesterday as after work I was made to go on a call-out which was easy enough but after it was over (on the way home) I was getting very agitated and just felt like there was this pressure on my head in a way.

    Not going to take any more until Monday (when I'm supposed to start).
