Hello, Michelle! How are you?

Yes, this contains the active ingredient Fluoxetine, which is an SSRI antidepressant that can also help with anxiety.

It can cause headaches as a side effect, along with irritability, dry mouth, dizziness and drowsiness, but from my own experience, I can tell you that those tend to wear off after a month, or so. Once your body gets used to the medication.

I've found that I do better by splitting the dose and taking half in the morning and half at night, but you should speak to your doctor about what would be best for you.

Is there anything else I can help with?

Hi,

Is there any way to overcome the lack of libido and arousal whilst on Nuzak? Or even so any other medication that works as well for depression but not affecting testosterone levels?
