I am surprised that someone eager to make a case against escitalopram keeps pressing the Gorman study. If you're depressed and considering Lexapro and you read the Gorman study, you will camp out on the sidewalk of your drugstore to be the first in line on the morning of the 5th. This is the first paragraph of Gorman's conclusion:

"The results of the pooled analyses clearly support the previously reported antidepressant effect of escitalopram. Additionally, these findings suggest that escitalopram may be superior to citalopram, in terms of both speed of onset and magnitude of its clinical effects. The early and sustained antidepressant efficacy observed with escitalopram was achieved with doses of 10-20 mg/day, which have reported to be very well tolerated."
