I have started back on Prozac and have been on it for about 6 weeks. I am currently on 40 mgs. I have been taking 20 in the morning and 20 at night and lately I can't sleep at all. When should I take that second dose. I know that there is such a long half life for Prozac, but I do feel better with the split dosing. Is this possible? Is there any benefit to split dosing? What would be the latest I would want to take it so I could fall asleep? Or just maybe take the full 40 mgs in the morning. Please advise. Thank you!

Its good to hear from you again! Doses larger than 20 mg of Prozac should be divided into morning and noon doses.
