What are the side effects of Fluoxetine Capsule?
Disinhibition is a side effect of anti-anxiety drugs that pet owners should be aware of. Because the animal's concern about the potential repercussions is lowered, the animal's inhibitions about violent conduct are reduced. Animals that had previously displayed no evidence of hostility may suddenly become hostile. Reduced appetite or an unsettled stomach are two more possible adverse effects. Lethargy and sleepiness are the most common adverse effects related with fluoxetine.
