Nor you should take this medicine:

If you are taking any medicine belonging to another class of drugs that are also used to treat depression and are known as non-selective inhibitors of monoamine oxidase (also called reversible inhibitors of monoamine oxidase type A or MAO-A), because it can cause serious or even fatal reactions.

Treatment with fluoxetine should only be started after two weeks of finishing treatment with an irreversible MAOI (for instance tranylcypromine). However, you can start treatment with fluoxetine the following day after treatment with certain reversible MAOIs called reversible MAO inhibitors (MAO-A inhibitors) (eg moclobemide).

Do not take any MAOIs for at least five weeks after stopping fluoxetine treatment. If your doctor prescribed fluoxetine for an extended period of time and/or high dose, he or she may consider the need for a greater interval before taking a MAOI. Examples of MAOIs include nialamide, iproniazid, selegiline, moclobemide, phenelzine, tranylcypromine, isocarboxazid, and toloxatone.

Take special care with fluoxetine

This risk may persist until an improvement of the disease occurs. After starting treatment with fluoxetine, it may take 3-4 weeks until you experience an improvement, so your doctor will carefully monitor your evolution when you begin treatment. Other psychiatric conditions for which fluoxetine is prescribed can also be associated with an increased risk of suicide-related events. Therefore they should follow the same precautions when treating patients with other psychiatric disorders.

Patients under 18 have an increased risk of adverse effects such as suicide attempts, suicidal thoughts and hostility (predominantly aggression, oppositional behavior and anger) when they take this class of drugs. Fluoxetine should only be used in children and adolescents aged 8-18 years for the treatment of depressive episodes of moderate to severe in combination with psychological therapy, and should not be used for other indications in this age group.

Additionally, there exists only limited information regarding the long-term safety of fluoxetine on growth, puberty, and cognitive, emotional and behavioral development in this age group. However, your doctor may prescribe fluoxetine for patients under 18 for the treatment of depressive episodes of moderate to severe in combination with psychological counseling if thinks this is the most convenient for the patient.

- Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) (medicines used to treat depression). Fluoxetine should not be used with non-selective MAO inhibitors and inhibitors known as MAO inhibitors type A (moclobemide) since may occur serious or even fatal reactions. Fluoxetine can be used jointly with MAO inhibitors known as MAO-B inhibitors (selegiline) as long as your doctor closely monitor treatment.
- Lithium, tryptophan: there is an increased risk of serotonin syndrome when these drugs are given along with fluoxetine. When administered in combination with lithium your doctor will carry out medical exams more often.

- Flecainide or encainide (to treat heart problems), carbamazepine (for the treatment of epilepsy), tricyclic antidepressants (e.g. imipramine, desipramine and amitriptyline), because fluoxetine can change the blood levels of these drugs.
