I’m on day 10 of Prozac 20mg and 0.5mg clonazepam twice a day. After I try to do chores or recumbent exercise bike (30min) I get very weak and exhausted and have to lie down again. Is this a side effect of the meds? It scares me as I’ve always worked hard and exercised.
Does Prozac cause exhaustion, weakness?

PROZAC: "Very common (10% or more of users): Asthenia/fatigue (up to 21%)"
Asthenia is a lack of energy/strength.
CLONAZEPAM: "Common (1% to 10%): Fatigue, lassitude, tiredness"
Lassitude is physical or mental weariness/lack of energy.
You're probably experiencing these side effects which generally resolve within a couple of weeks.
If it's persistent or overwhelming you might need to ask your doctor for advice.
