Are Wellbutrin, Zoloft, Paxil, Cymbalta As Effective As Lexapro?
Brief Answer:
Lexapro can be considered superior
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.
Although scientifically speaking there is no medicine superior or inferior among the available choices. Across the studies they have similar efficacy.
Having said this I personally feel Lexapro is better option as it have very mild propensity to cause side effects and do not interact with most of other medications.
I hope this helps you.
Thanks and regards
