Hi all,

I have just got the third prescription for my fluoxetine 20mg and am on my 8th week. The box is different and the marketing authorisation holder on the back is different. Will this make any difference to me?

Thanks

Emma

    I shouldn't think so, its just probably a generic brand of the same thing, Ive had different brands of the same drugs many times and there just the same, its just another company that makes the same thing. Like, paracetamol, comes under lots of different company names that make it, but its still just paracetamol. if you know what i mean. Theres tight regulations about these things, so it will just be the same, just a different company that is making it. don't worry Love G
