Hello. I know that a similar question has already been asked, but I would like to ask a similar question again. I took fluexythin first 10 mg, then 20, then 10 mg for four days. The total duration of taking the drug was 5 weeks.
I have not taken fluexytin for 2 weeks and have been taking aciprex 10mg for 5 days.
How long can I still feel negative side effects of fluexitin?

The duration of adverse reactions after discontinuation of fluoxetine can range from a few days to several months, depending on the type of adverse reaction and the individual characteristics of the patient. If the undesirable symptoms persist for a long time or are particularly bothersome, it is worth consulting a doctor.
Fluoxetine and its active metabolite norfluoxetine have a long half-life (4-6 days for fluoxetine, 7-15 days for norfluoxetine), so these drugs are gradually eliminated from the body. As the concentration of the drug in the body decreases, the side effects (such as anxiety, insomnia, headaches) usually subside. Side effects such as nausea or diarrhoea usually disappear more quickly.
I enclose the leaflet of the drug and helpful materials:
