Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic
All antidepressant are equally show response in teen. In case, you need better response, you can try combination of antidepressant like paxil with bupropion or venlafaxine with mirtazapine etc. Better to discuss with his psychiatrist, in case, you need my help, you can ask.
Thanks
