I agree w/ the above. Have her ask her doc to change the rx to Celexa which she can get generic. My read of the literature is that there is no huge advantage to lex over cel. Many people speculate that it was produced mostly for the drug company's financial gains (i.e., they no longer had a patent on cel).

If for some reason cel doesn't work out, she also could try some of the other SSRI's that are available on generic like prozac or paxil (although i personally HATE paxil).

Best,
EE
