Prozac (Fluoxetine) for Diabetes?

Posted by Pluto on September 12, 2006, at 5:38:07

Hi
FYI only.
I have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes recently. Medications like Glucophage and Amaryl too were prescribed. After this incident, I switched from Zoloft to Prozac 20 mg daily.
Now surprisingly, I find my blood sugar levels absolutely normal even after stopping diabetes medications. I eat a healthy diet. Low fat biscuits plus an apple a day. Rice...paultry, fruit juice...still my blood glucose levels don't go higher than normal.
My conclusion is (I have confirmed this researching online): Fluoxetine at moderate doses can lower blood glucose levels. It can be a good choice for diabetics with depression.
Any comments?
Cheers
PLS
