Hi,
Celaxa (Citalopram) is the old version of Lexapro-so if you are interested in trying Lexapro, Celexa might be an option to consider? It's on Walmart's rx discount list:
CITALOPRAM 20MG TAB 30 QTY $4 90 $10
CITALOPRAM 40MG TAB 30 QTY $4 90 $10You can ask your doctor to presribe it according to the discount matrix and it could be cheaper than insurance co-pays.

Other drug stores and also grocery stores offer discounted drugs as well.
Citalopram (pronounced /saɪˈtælɵpræm/)[1] was originally created in 1989[2] by the pharmaceutical company Lundbeck. The patent expired in 2003, allowing other companies to legally produce generic versions. Lundbeck has recently released an updated formulation called escitalopram (also known as Cipralex or Lexapro),[citation needed] which is the S-enantiomer of the racemic citalopram (see b), and acquired a new patent for it. In the United States, Forest Labs manufactures and markets the drug.
