I grabbed the wrong bottle so I don't have my Prozac. I'm staying the weekend with a friend out of state so it's unlikely that I'll be able to get it. I take Seroquel to help the Prozac work better. Should I take extra Seroquel because if I'm more than 3 hours late on my Prozac I start to have panic attacks. I need help now please!
*emergency* what to do when you forget to bring your antidepressant on a trip?

Never take one drug to compensate for another. You can go a couple days without the Paxil. By the third day you start feeling some withdrawal but it would be just starting. Take your regular dose as usual when home. Do not take extra anything including Paxil. You will be just fine.

Hi Anna,
You probably got some by now! But what I would do is go to a pharmacy explain the problem and they will fax or call your pharmacy to get the presc. transferred. When you get home you can transfer back or call your doc at that point.
Take care,

First anna_dear Take a deep breath and try really hard not to panic. I would get a hold of whoever your insurance is through and call them and get to approve a small amount of your Prozac. I suggest you don't take more seroquel it could make you more anxious, and you feel more panicked. Take care californiagal75

Can you call your doc and explain? Maybe he can write a script for a few and fax to pharmacy in the state you're in?
