I'd start with drop dosages and work up, seeing how the plant effects you. I only use 3-5 drops in most circumstances. If you're thinking of weaning of prozac though, I suggest going slow and working with a knowledgeable herbalist during the process.

Would you use a tincture of this plant to treat paranoia and phobias and if so what dosage would your recommend. I suffer from panic attacks and have been on Prozac for 20 or more yrs. Would love to get off this drug and use herbal plants to treat attacks. Thanks Sue Can Monkeyflower be use with depression medicines such as Prozac.
