> I will start Nardil in 4 days following a 15 day washout from Prozac. Do you think 15 days is enough washout time from Prozac which I have been on for the majority of 13 years treatment for unipolar depression


How much Prozac were you taking?

Prozac can be a real pain in the neck when it comes to drug washout. The half-life of the active drug and its metabolites can be a week or more. By comparison, most of the other antidepressants have half-lives of a day or less. I would feel uncomfortable recommending a washout period of two weeks or less. More like 5 weeks.

Sorry.
