Paxil vs. Celexa - differences, similarities?

Posted by Cindylou on December 19, 2001, at 13:48:17

Hi,
Can someone tell me the differences and similarities of Celexa vs. Paxil?

What are the advantages and disadvantages of them both?

I know Paxil is an SSRI that's good for social anxiety, but don't know much about Celexa.

For someone who's med sensitive, especially with fatigue as a side effect, which would be the better choice?

Thanks in advance for any help here,
cindy

PS - I'm currently taking 100 mg Lamictal with 100 mg Serzone -- but I cannot tolerate any more Serzone due to the fatigue, so I need to try another AD. I have tried all of them except Paxil, Celexa and Remeron (and I haven't tried any of the meds on trial, like Reboxitine.)

I have also combined ADs with Wellbutrin to help with the fatigue, but it doesn't help much. Can't handle stimulants either because of the crash effect after a few days.

Just some background info in case you needed it!
