In reply to Lexapro/Celexa: The Best for Anxiety? Differences?, posted by RM73 on November 12, 2007, at 13:08:05
Not an unusual circumstance for me.....
For me, there was a difference in my response to Lex versus generic Celexa. I had a better, more robust response to Lex with fewer side effects.
I suggest, for ecomonic reasons, you do begin with generic Celexa, however, if you don't receive the response you desire, do not discount that Lex might indeed work or upramp your desired findings JUST because you didn't find that with Celexa.
I do not find Lex activating and I dose at night without any sleep problems with doing that. Startup was a bit rough with an increase in anxiety symptoms that were held fairly at bay with the use of Klonopin.
I have been in remission for 2 1/2 years and weaned off a benzo 1 1/2 years ago. Lex, the only head med I take, has been truly a Godsend for me.
Good Luck
