In order to save money, your pharmacist may fill your prescription with generic Prozac. However, do not be fooled. The no-name brand has the same medicinal properties as Prozac. It will still cause an increase in suicidal thoughts and actions, especially in young children and teenagers. The generic brand can still cause serotonin syndrome, if coupled with medications like those used for migraine headaches. If you want to get off the drug in the future, you will still need the help of your doctor to wean off the medication. The only difference between generic Prozac and the name brand is the price.
