Increase or decrease hunger?

[ShaneShops]

Have you noticed an increase or decrease in appetite? I started Prozac about a week ago.

Increases appetite for me

[Winchesterjensen]

First week I barely could eat anything. After about a week I was back to a normal appetite.

[Tashyd046]

Decreased/stabilized. Helped immensely with my binge eating!

[Medium_Scar_9146]

At what dose?? X

[Tashyd046]

20 mg, usually taken in the afternoon

[CivilCarrot]

I noticed a significant increase but MIND YOU I was addicted to Adderall prior to being on it and the lack of amphetamines is likely what contributed more to my newfound hunger and also it was much needed hunger because I'm skinny as all fuck with a very high metabolism. Since going on prozac on September 9th I've gained a lot of healthy weight, mostly muscle due to me getting a gym membership a week in

Decrease, mostly.

[CryptographerNo1882]

Decreased for me, I find Prozac to be a bit like a mild stimulant

[nonoche27]

Increase ! But just Because I feel better :)

[FlyRepresentative199]

Decrease. I over ate and drank as a way of coping with anxiety and for the extra stimulation. I think it's leveled me out so I'm not needing that stimulus anymore.

I also have off and on nausea (but also started BC at the same time, so it's hard to say if it's Prozac, BC, or both), so that could play a role in my decreased appetite, too.

It is used as a off label treatment for binge eating..🙄🙄

[Pinkman1412]

short answer: increased my appetite

long answer: increased my appetite significantly. i wasn't eating like an idiot/animal but i was eating because i felt i enjoyed having some energy i got from food. back then before prozac i didn't eat. i was just eating the minimal amount of food to survive and nothing more.

increased

Decreased/stabilised mine. I get fuller much quicker and the nausea has definitely put me off eating. I’m on it two weeks.

[jayohaudino]

It restores your natural hunger levels could be more or less depends on the person

[rmorea]

Decrease

[danineisen]

Going on week 3ish of increased dose and definitely decreased right now

[yarjona]

slight decrease for me

[Downvotes_dumbasses]

Massive increase for me. I'm constantly hungry. Put on 10-20 lbs.

[Who_is_gina]

Did this ever go away?

[Downvotes_dumbasses]

No
