Sarafem Or Zoloft to Treat Pmdd Posted: 07-24-07 18:48pm
My primary care doctor recently suggested
that I start taking Prozac (fluoxetine)
for my depression related to menstrual
cycle. But I am a little bit hesitant to
start taking it because of the list of
side effects. In your experience with
patients, does Sarafem tend to work better
than Zoloft to relieve symptoms of
depression related to PMDD? Also, how is
Sarafem different than regular Prozac? Is
it a lower dose of Prozac? I know that
they are both SSRI's, but do any of them
work better (with less side effects) for
treating PMDD?
