Application
Norfluoxetine hydrochloride has been used to examine if psychoactive pharmaceuticals in drinking water at environmental concentrations could induce neuronal gene expression. It has also been used to examine whether at environmental concentrations it can alter in vitro expression of autism spectrum disorders (ASD)-associated synaptic proteins in human neurons.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Fluoxetine metabolite; more potent inhibitor of serotonin uptake than fluoxetine with a half-life in vivo of 5-7 days.
Norfluoxetine is an active metabolite of fluoxetine. It disturbs the production of estrogen in a co-culture model of the feto-placental unit.
Caution
Hygroscopic, photosensitive

Omega-3 (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and fluoxetine (FLX) have additive effects in the treatment of major depressive disorder, and FLX up-regulates genes that regulate fatty acid biosynthesis in vitro. Although these data suggest that FLX may augment n-3 fatty
