Zoloft to Lexapro or Celexa?

[Momoizkool]

I am thinking that zoloft has kinda stopped working for me and I recently upped my dose about 2 2 and 1/2 months ago and still having some side effects,mostly stomach issues hungry not hungry exct,foggy head feeling not feeling like myself. So i have been wondering if anyone has went from zoloft to lexapro or celexa and had better results? Also awakward but sexual side effects with zoloft. And how did you do switching the meds,Was it a pain in the butt or kinda easy to do?? Anyone?? just looking for some experience storys!

at one point some years ago I went from zoloft to lexapro, it was not difficult but I was doing well anyway though the zoloft still bothered my stomach and had the obvious sexual side effects.  On lex the sexual side effects were if anything worse the first month, then got better.   It worked well for years, I am on it again but still not where I need to be, so I don't know if I will continue with it or switch back to Zoloft or something else (or try again to get to 20 mg, I take 15 now, 10 worked well before when I was on it last).  So the switch you propose is possible and may not be difficult, though we all differ, of course.

Zoloft to Lexapro or Celexa?

Lexapro and Celexa contain the same active isomer of citalopram (Celexa also contain the much less active one too), however, I lean toward Celexa mainly because it has a wider dose range which allows for more options when tapering on/off it. But you might as well flip a coin.
