The way I see it, a switch from Celexa to Lexapro would be prudent. Celexa has a drug in it (the R-enantiomer) which apparently has NO antidepressant activity. In fact, it may be harmful in terms of making the active ingredient less effecive. And also it might cause side effects. Why would anyone want to take the R-enantiomer? Why put a drug in your body that is not helpfull and that might be harmfull?
