No, they are similar enough. You should have no trouble taking zoloft your last day and starting lexapro the next. Side effects you can look for would be nausea, headache, and upset stomach. You might also have a little trouble sleeping for the first few days as your body adjusts to the switch.

Do you have to wean off lexapro or can you just stop taking it - i am on 20 mg. a day?
It's generally recommended to wean off Lexapro (escitalopram) rather than stopping it abruptly, as doing so can lead to withdrawal symptoms or a return of anxiety or depression. Tapering the dosage gradually under a doctor's supervision can help minimize these risks. Always consult your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medication regimen.

What happens if you completely stop taking Lexapro overnight?
I wouldn't do that if I were you. You need to wean yourself off of Lexapro slowly and even then you are going to get some withdrawl symptoms, including dizziness and nausea. That's what happened to me when I went off Lexapro over a two week period. From what I understand the withdrawl can sometimes be worse than what I had. I would consult with your doctor and come up with a plan for you to get off. If you need to go back on something I would stay away from Lexapro - I have been on several antidepressants and that was the worse one to stop!

Can you wean off lexapro slowly then start a cheaper version of SSRI such as fluoxetine?
Yes of course, but don't do it if lexapro works good, because you don't know for sure fluoxetine will work, and generally, fluoxetine has more side effects, especially sexual ones. If you really can't afford lexapro and you don't have social insurance, try to find generic escitalopram (the active ingredient of lexparo) as the patent for the drug has expired or buy it overseas from a trusted on-line pharmacy from Canada or Europe.
