Fluoxetine and sore throat, lymph nodes
Hi,
I started taking prozac/prodep (fluoxetine) 20mg 4 days ago. On first day itself, after 4 hours i felt a lump in my throat and it was painful to yawn.
Then on third day, i started to feel pain near back of throat.
My last dosage was yesterday.
Upon simple Google search, i found that prozac can cause sore throat. So i stopped taking it.
But my pain is not going away.
Need help!
- thanks
