Unbelievable shit.
Sodium fluoride is NOT ingredient in prozac.
The metallic halide- Sodium or potassium Fluoride is indeed dangerous. This is not the case with other compounds having bond with the fluorine atom.

And ... so why do they put it in PRozac? Any various and sundry good reasons, besides ruining someone's brain and health?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 20025701


You fucking idiot. Prozac has three elemental FLUORINE atoms which cannot react with anything, bound to a methyl.
This is not (free) metallic FLUORIDE which can react with different things in your body...

Somebody, just unpin this shit, mmkay?

yes , but what of methylation in regards to paxil and its structure?

methylation of fluoride

[link to en.wikipedia.org] - paxil structure
 Quoting: whatofmethylation and paxil? 1572549


w00t? the fluorine group of paxil is unreactive.

There cannot be no methylation of the fluorine on that molecule. The fluorine on the other hand could give some steering how the molecule is metabolized - for example stering from monoamino-oxidase towards Cathecol-Oxygen-methyl transferase (COMT), but in this particular case it is there just because of better affinity and for hinderance of the metabolite ((3S,4R)-3-[(2H-1,3-benzodioxol-5-yloxy)methyl]-4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)piperidine or as per IUPAC naming: 4-{(3S,4R)-3-[(1,3-benzodioxol-5-yloxy)methyl]piperidin-4-yl}phenol)

NIH shift is possible for the molecule, but rest assured: the fluorine will stay intact with the benzene ring. There will be no free fluorine (radicals) running around your system messing up the body going where ever hydroxyls would go (bones, teeth, pineal gland).
