Yes, you probably need to take Prozac again but before you start taking it again please see your doctor. Before stopping these medicines it is a good idea to discuss it with your doctor. Don't stop taking them abruptly.

Hey troook,
You probably need to be back on the Prozac, but would benefit from an evaluation by the prescribing doctor. Prozac stays in the body for a long time but once you start missing dose you are decreasing its effectiveness. If you have only missed a few days, then return to your regular dosing schedule asap. If it has been 2 weeks, then you have decreased the dosage considerably and need to discuss with the doctor. Be sure to tell the office staff what has happened so to get an appointment as soon as possible.
Best wishes,
Laurie
