» xlaurmo - Prozac Mania

My Mom has been on Prozac for 5 years. Since April 2002 she has been in almost a constant mania. Finally, (after much stress on our family) her doctor is taking her off Prozac. I've read the Prozac Mania article and I am beginning to think the Prozac has caused her bi-polar like symptoms. If she goes off Prozac will this be the end of the mania? She is in her 50's and this is the first time she has had these manic symptoms. I'm confused if Prozac causes bi-polar illness or if it puts the person in a short term mania that will subside once they go off the drug. Thanks in advance.
