Antidepressant drug. Fluoxetine, like other drugs in this class, is classified as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). Its mechanism of action appears to be via selective inhibition of serotonin reuptake and downregulation of 5-HT1 receptors. SSRIs are more selective for inhibiting serotonin reuptake than the tricyclic antidepressant (TCA) drugs. Fluoxetine is metabolized to norfluoxetine, which is an active metabolite. Oral absorption in dogs is 72% with a half-life of 6-10 hours. The metabolite norfluoxetine has a longer half-life of 48-57 hours. In cats, oral absorption is 100%
