In reply to Re: so 60mg celexa would roughly be _ lexapro?, posted by bassman on July 5, 2006, at 5:40:07
I've been on 60mgs of celexa. I have improved greatly. I am moving to lexapro in hopes of fewer side effects, namely sexual.
My PDoc believes that it is a 2:1 ratio, and that 30mgs is more appropriate. My family doc thinks try 20, and go up if needed. My PDOC agrees that I can always go up if needed.
Only problem is that i am worried of losing any benefit that i've experienced if i take 20.
Would you say 20 and go up, or do 30, and go down later when feeling better?
Pretty severe OCD, amongst all the other anxiety disorders.
I appreciate your input.
