Day 14 fluoxetine and I’m itching

Posted , 2 users are following.

I’m assuming the itchy skin I’m having particularly my hands, legs, arms is a side affect of starting these meds? Has anyone else ever had this whilst taking fluoxetine?

I’m day 14 of 20mg just want to know if it’s normal and will it stop. Not due to have a review with my GP until next week I’m thinking maybe it’s worth mentioning the itching? 

Thanks 😊
