Lexapro is a derivative of Celexa, right? How do the doses go? Celexa is in 20mg and 40mg pills... I'm on 80mg, but I have severe Panic and OCD and was on a ton of Imipramine... I need a lot I think just to get rid of the OCD... I'll look into Lexapro.Anybody else have any other success stories? Anybody ever gone from a TCA-> SSRI and had success?
just wondering still....
Erik :)
