prozac, binge drinking

i dont really have an answer but i have been wondering the same thing myself. I am on prozac and not every time but a lot of the time wen i binge drink i have bad blackouts or dont remember anything at all. my friends tell me of me doin things i wouldnt normally da and they say i didnt even look drunk so ????

i was in the hospital just last night from an alcohol induced black-out. My friends did not know what to do and they said i was screaming at them to take me to a hospital. Im prescribed to 20mg of prozac and had no clue the combo was so bad. I had quite a bit to drink but hadnt felt anything for atleast three hours.. i mean actually i had a mild buzz but not completely uncontrollable and then out of nowhere i hit the pavement, literally. According to my friends, my eyes would roll to the back of my head whenever she asked me to look her in the eyes. I would then be surrounded by people and get up and stammer to a less occupied area where i would once again hit the ground. It was weird how at one moment i had absolutely no control and then the next i'd be running and screaming. The majority of medications say "do not drink alcohol" and people do all the time with no problem whatsoever. Maybe doctors should be more clear on exactly what happens if you do because I would have never picked up a drink and i most certainly will not from that night on. My question to anyone with information is will there be long-term effects?
please help!

From my own experience, I'm very skeptical about interaction between alcohol and Prozac.

If you passed out while consuming alcohol and taking Prozac: I strongly suggest it was just the booze. Worry about the booze, not the Prozac.

Just a suggestion, pot is much healthier than alcohol.

i have been on prozac for about 2 months now.I was taking Buspar w/prozac. I stopped the Buspar because i kept forgetting things well i think it was the Prozac after all. :!: .I do on the weekends like to drink with friends, lately i have noticed i have been blacking out , wake up and not rembering anything that happend after a certain point..It is a very scary thing and not safe at all..I thought about switching from Prozac to another med..But i have tried alot of antidepressants, Prozac seem to help. So now i am just going to quite drinking and see how it goes. If i still have strange side effects i am going to switch meds..DO NOT DRINK ON PROZAC WHATEVER YOU DO!!!

My wife has been on 40mg of fluoxetine for 10 years now. She drinks a large vodka with a little tonic water when she gets home and then switches to red wine the rest of the evening. By 8:30 EST there's no point in engaging in a conversation with her because it makes absoloutely no sense at all. She's verbally abusive. She's 52 now and looks horrible. She forgets things all the time. She swears she says things she didn't say and accuses me of saying things I never did. Here's the bottom line on anti depressants and alcohol...primary care physicians dole them out like candy on Halloween with minimal monitoring or follow up. People on anti depressants should be under the care of a licensed psychiatrist or therapist. Don't mix the two!!!!!

Wrong. Prozac actually causes alcohol dependence. Stop the prozac it ruined my life.
