Hello-
Prodep is the brand name of a medicine called fluoxetine. Common side effects in men include decreased libido and difficulty getting an erection. Some men have trouble maintaining an erection. Men taking Prodep also report delayed or blocked orgasm. So more you use more chances of getting ED.

Hi,
it is better to take your son for therapy for his addiction to gaming. The therapist would advise you ways to handle him and learn limit setting. If he doesn't have major behavioral symptoms, medication is not required. I would suggest you meet a clinical psychologist.
Thanks.

Hello
you may be aware that ocd can be a chronic condition which can be more prominent during stressful periods. Ocd can be effectively managed by a combination of medication and psychological therapy like cbt. You have been on prodep (fluoxetine) for few years with certain degree of benefit.
