Stop Zoloft start lexapro how many days?
First, you can't just stop taking Zoloft--if you've taken it for more than a month or so, you'll have to slowly decrease your dose until it is 10mg or so and then stop (this should take several weeks.) Then you're ready to start Lexapro (no cool off period in between is necessary.) Note: I am not a physician but I know that if your doctor recommended changing from Zoloft to Lexapro s/he would have already gone over this--be careful--Zoloft has a profound effect on your brain chemistry, make sure your doctor is in agreement on this. Note: I've taken Zoloft (Sertraline) and Wellbutrin in different strengths for over 6 years, these are serious drugs.

Should i stop taking lexapro if i feel like my depression is getting better?
Nope ... not without your doctor's approval. Most medications can only do what they are supposed to do when taken as prescribed by a licensed medical professional. To do otherwise totally defeats the purpose of taking the medication in the first place. You may be feeling better about yourself, but you certainly do not want to slip backwards into a depression mode, so, do as your doctor orders.
