Obsessive compulsive disorder, feedback from users of Prozac, reaction to cold air or water, red itchy skin?
Fluoxetine / Prozac can lead to allergic reactions. The chances are very low and comparable to other psychotropic drugs. Every drug can lead to allergic reactions. In this case it seems that allergy is being caused by exposure to cold. Stay on prozac and discuss it with your practitioner. Do not discontinue it without consultation.
Reply:Ask your doctor if this is a common side effect. Maybe it is another condition altogether. He/she may want to prescribe something other than Prozac. There are some very good alternatives.
Reply:this reminds me the time I took too many sleeping peels, i was so fu*ked and my skin was so itchy I wanted to cut it :)
