Once generic Celexa is available, many insurance companies wont want to pay for Lexapro anymore. In fact, my insurance company wont even pay for Celexa right now. Its not formulary on my coverage. Besides, Id prefer to use Prozac, Zoloft or Paxil anyway.

Generics are almost always better. They are cheaper, just as good, just as effective. And furthermore you have the satisfaction of knowing you are not making some asshole drug company richer, while making yourself poorer. We already have generic Prozac, generic Paxil and generic Zoloft are not far off. Then we will have generic Effexor XR. Wellbutrin is already generic.

We dont need anymore SSRIs, the USA already has plenty of them on the market. Before Lexapro we had five SSRIs...Prozac, Zoloft, Paxil, Luvox and Celexa. Now Lexapro. Thats stupid. Five was plenty. Its time to develop something truly new, novel and improved than more SSRIs.

Furthermore, 2005 will be here before you know it. Generic Celexa is right around the corner.
