Hello,

They definitely still make SSRI's in brand form.

See the above thread on Brand vs. Generic.

Brand SSRI's, in my opinion are at least slightly more effective than the generic. From my experience, I would recommend that you at least try one month on the brand between months 1 and 4 on the drug to see if there is a noticeable difference between the two for you - the difference can even be vast as it was between one specific generic and another generic fluoxetine, a difference I would have been unaware of if I did not try one month on the brand "prozac". So, to further complicate matters, there can also be vast differences between generics themselves. You cannot judge though without seeing the intended effect from the brand drug itself.

Hope that helps.
