Did my doctor tell me to take too much fluoxetine?
Good evening, for about 3 weeks I have increased my dose of fluoxetine from 40mg to 50mg. I've been taking the drug for 6 months and it worked very well for me, but for a few days I've been feeling anxiety, increased sensitivity to sounds, never before when increasing the dose have side effects been as severe as they were felt rather in the first days... And here after a long time. Can the dose of 50mg be too high for me?

If you think that the recommended dose of Fluoxetine is too high, I encourage you to consult your doctor again.
If it is not possible to visit the site, I encourage you to take advantage of the teleconsultation, e.g. via the Gdziepolek.pl portal:

Anxiety or auditory hallucinations (which may be referred to as hypersensitivity to sounds) may be one of the side effects of Fluoxetine. If the described symptoms persist, I encourage you to consult your doctor again.
I am attaching a link that allows you to check the availability of Fluoxetine and make a reservation at the pharmacy of your choice:

I also encourage you to report the occurrence of adverse drug reactions. Reporting side effects allows you to increase control over the medicines available on the market. We wrote more about how and why to report side effects in the article:
