We started Prozac about 7 days ago and getting the stomach upset which we're relating to the Prozac.  I think we were happier on Venlafaxine...(Effexor).  May try opening the prozac capsule and consuming only the contents.  I once took a multi-vitamin in a 'blue capsule' which made me vomit each time - quit after 4 times of this.  I think the capsule dye was the culprit - prozac caps look like they could be an issue (long shot).  So, we'll experiment and see.

  prozac was the last of three anti-depressants i tried
  and had the fewest side-effects for me.
  i have been on it since 1990
  but we are all different chemical soups
  just as pd symptoms and pd meds are sometimes quite different among us.
  each anti-depressant might work differently for each one of us.
