Dear sir dinner people who suffer from depression may need to continue the medications for long term even lifelong. Fluoxetine is a safe medicine and can be taken for a long term safely. Please do not stop the medicines without consulting your psychiatrist. Just like any other chronic illness like diabetes or high blood pressure where you need to continue medicines for longterm, depression also require long term treatment. Apart from medicines, you will benefit from psychological therapy, regular exercise and meditation. Thanks regards.
