Well my 2 cents..

Why would there be a multimillion pound trials for a product that is already approved with many generic one available..it would not be cost efficient for any pharmaceutical company to undertake me think.

As I said chemo is just active for few minutes/hours at bestafter IV so really I think it would just be a matter of taking prozac perhaps just few days before or perhaps just during chemo treatments, what ever you feel may be appropriate.

I would not venture into trying other forms that the one we have data for, what would be the point. As to interaction with tamoxifen well as explained before it would not be taken for long. And as a matter of fact there is a debate as to whether one should take inhibitors during chemos..

As I said before I am not advising simply putting the info and my thoughts out there..
