I´ve been taking prozac for eight weeks(full dosage) against
depression and panic disorder. The panic is much better but
I´m more tired than usual and still as depressed as before.
Is it possible that the drug will do anything for the depression
after that time(eight weeks)?

If someone's been at a particular dosage for 8
weeks with no response, then I think it's unlikely,
though anything's possible, that there will be a
response later.But in your case it sounds like your panic disorder
has in fact responded, so it's not like the Prozac
isn't doing anything...Bob
