Prozac And Itching
(Newest replies first)
Updated
I was removed from an antidepressant coctail 5 years ago and put on Prozac. It works for depression, but I have developed a horrible itching problem which I wonder if may be related to this drug. I have had diagnostics for everything. No rash. Just an increasing inability to tolerate any irritation to skin surface without literally months of horrible itching. I am being tortured to death. Any suggestions/help?

I also take thyroid replacement and medication for tremor. My neurologist also put me on gabapentin and aleve. This has been going on for 5 years.
I have been to every kind of physician. None can figure this out. I itch 24-7. Carry around ice bags and bottles continually. It is getting worse, although the Prozac doseage has remained constant.
How long has the itching been occurring?
Do you take any other medications?
Have you consulted a dermatologist?
Itching can occur with Prozac, but it usually happens immediately, not after you've been on it for awhile.
