Traces of the antidepressant Prozac can be found in the nation's drinking water, it has been revealed.

 

An Environment Agency report suggests so many people are taking the drug nowadays it is building up in rivers and groundwater.

 

A report in Sunday's Observer says the government's environment watchdog has discussed the impact for human health.

 

A spokesman for the Drinking Water Inspectorate (DWI) said the Prozac found was most likely highly diluted.
