I was choked when I found out that some teenagers are mixing Prozac and alcohol. I don’t know how they got Prozac, but they seem to do that often. I haven’t told to anyone, I was thinking talking to them first, try to scare them ….is mixing dangerous?
Alcohol is a depressant, so when mixing alcohol with antidepressants, such as Prozac a person's ability to operate normally is impaired. Alcohol has a paradoxical effect for those being on antidepressants. Alcohol actually worsens one’s symptoms for ADD, and makes the person hyperactive, impulsive, etc.
