Re: Prozac to Lexapro

I have a lesser degree of sexual side effects on Lexapro than I did when on either Prozac or Celexa. But I still have some degree of sexual side effects.

Lexapro has a shorter half life than Prozac. Therefore, if I have sex in the morning before taking Lexapro, my sexual side effects are less since it's been 24 hours since I took my last dose. This timing will not work with Prozac.

But anyway, you have a tough decision to make since Prozac is working for your depression. I guess you could try Lexapro for a few months and then switch back to Prozac if it doesn't work out.
