Re: fluoxetine and retrieval sedation

Are there any drug interaction concerns between Prozac and sedation medication for an egg retrieval? The meds I take for retrieval are 100mg demerol, 50mg phenergan. I will ask my doctor, but want to get more than one opinion. Thank you.

[Thank-you]

Thank you for all the information.  I'm not sure if regular general anesthesia would be the same as sedation that I will be undergoing with just demerol and phenergan.  So far with 2 other responses, I have been told it's ok to be on prozac during sedation.  I still have not talked with my doctor, but will next time I see him to discuss the next IVF.  Thanks again.  I hope the excessive serotonin syndrome is an isolated incident.
