In reply to prozac, posted by leos on June 25, 2004, at 18:13:09
> i would like advice on prozac - pro and con. lexapro worked for me for a couple of months then pooped out. ive considered effexor but am a little afraid to give it a try considering all the bad things ive read about it although i wonder for all the bad responses are there just as many good ones?

>Hi,
What symptoms do you suffer from? The efficacy of Prozac is at best average, but I would always try it based solely on the fact that it is the easiest SSRI to withdrawl from. Prozac is probably the most stimulating SSRI which also makes it first choice for lethargic or obese people. I would reserve Effexor until you have tried Prozac and Zoloft, the SSRI with the best record.
Cheers,
Panda.
