I take Zoloft without a problem. I took pills the day after RNY surgery.

I was told by my surgeon that there was nothing that I could not take for medicine. There is no medicine that is bigger than the opening to the new stomach. I have had no problems with fairly big antibiotic pills.......

I still take Zoloft which is very similar to Prozac.

Yes, You can still take Prozac. You will have to switch to liquid because the tablets are capsules and can not be cut in half. It doesn't bother your stomach at all.

Hi There, Yes, there is a liquid prozac. Consult your doc about "hurting your stomach" though. Hugs to spare Char

Prozac is the only anti-depressant that also comes in liquid form and you can take it after WLS. Good Luck.
