prozac an anti-depressant is an ssri (selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitor). while there are a number of reasons why an individual might take an anti-depressant – the reason cited 90 percent of the time is depression. sadly research has shown that depression has been linked more often than not as a side effect to other medications substance abuse and/or other types of medical conditions – than as a condition on its own. anti-depressants such as abilify zoloft cymbalta and prozac are used to treat depression but unless the reason or cause of the depression is defined and addressed the individual could end up taking the drug indefinitely or worse self-medicating to treat the symptoms. xanax on the other hand is a sedative/tranquilizer and part of the benzodiazepine drug class. although studies have shown that chronic abuse of sedatives and tranquilizers result in the drug’s ineffectiveness many users develop addictive tendencies and without professional assistance cannot stop. long-term use of either/both of these drugs can have lasting effects that can make it very difficult to stop without professional medical detox treatment. gallus detox center is a private inpatient detox facility that specializes in iv therapy medical detox. if you have questions about our facility or detox method please call us at 855-338-6929.
