Sarafem (fluoxetine) for Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder: I wish I knew about this medication years ago. It has been a year this month and I have had tremendous results. My husband is shocked. This was very scary for me to try because I always was told that I should use alternate ways to relieve my symptoms. My mother and grandmother suffered from PMDD and I wish they had this option. I highly recommend it, especially for those who do everything else; eating right and exercising.

Sarafem (fluoxetine) for Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder: I cried for no reason for 3 weeks straight. Doctor put me on Sarafem (fluoxetine). Feel much better. Haven't shed a tear since. I've been on this medicine for 3 years. No more blues.

Sarafem (fluoxetine) for Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder: I just finished my first 7-day cycle of Sarafem for PMS (PMDD). During that week, I was a little uncomfortable with the way I was feeling - sweating at night, some sleeplessness, a little jittery.
However, once I got my period and realized the amazing contrast in this month compared to all the other prior torturous months, those side effects were totally worth it. I have never had a PMS-symptom-free month like this one. It was miraculous!
