You can use buscopan and Maalox.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and here is my advice .
Prozac can give side effects such upset stomach and stomach pain.
If you have pain you can use buscopan tablets twice daily and if you have hyperacidity and upset stomach antiacids such Maalox can be used.
You can wait for 3-4 days to feel better.
If you don't feel better you should get further evaluated.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
