"Prozac 40mg reduces the severity of panic attacks. It doesn't get rid of them, but makes them easily manageable. Breathing exercises and talking are now enough to calm down, thanks to this medication."

"I felt like this was a good fit for me the only issue was I got bumps all over my chest and back. I thought it was acne until I went from 20lbs to 40mgs. It was horrible acne all over my back chest cheeks. Bad deal. Other than that I think it was working. Had to stop and go on lexapro which works well for me no bumps."
