Prozac is an SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor) & acts to keep serotonin in the synapse (space between neurons). This is accomplished by inhibiting the normal process of extracting serotonin from the synapse by a process called reuptake. Keeping serotonin in the synapse longer causes the serotonergic neruons to be more effective.

It consists of nerves that connect the central nervous system to the rest of the body, including sensory and motor neurons. The peripheral nervous system is responsible for transmitting information to and from the central nervous system.
Information is conveyed from the same sense of organs to the central nervous system by?
Information from the same sense organs is conveyed to the central nervous system by specialized sensory neurons, which convert physical stimuli into electrical signals known as action potentials. These action potentials travel along nerve fibers to the central nervous system where they are processed and interpreted.
