Fluoxetine Northstar

I have taken Prozac generic fluoxetine for two years. I rec'd new prescription from Northside. Since I started taking this drug, I have been hyper not sleeping, major reflux and heartburn, and today started with diarrhea. I am planning to return this drug to the pharmacy for another brand.

Three doctors and one pharmacist had never heard of the problem. Bless you Dr. Google! The Blue pills should be reserved for torture purposes only. ## It is amazing that people are complaining about the different types of generic, Prozac. I know the generic, fluoxetine, is made by many drug manufacturers. The generic brand, depending on the manufacturers that make or provide, fluoxetine, do not seem to work well for some people, while the other people using the same type of generic fluoxetine works great. I know I am one of those people. I just read that one person cannot stand the blue generic fluoxetine made by NorthStar, but the 40mg blue generic...
