Prozac is a normal med used for bipolar disorder but is usually used together with a mood stabilizer like lithium or depakote. If not, you may switch into a manic state. The side effects may go away with time. You have to give them a chance to work. It takes at least 2 weeks or as much as 8 weeks for the drug to get full effects. I'd suggest staying on the drug for at least 2 months (unless serious problems arise of course) and seeing if it works for you. Keep us updated and let us know what happens either way...
