My subjective experience has been that Lexapro produces fewer s/e or AEs than any other antidepressant I've tried, including Prozac, Zoloft, Effexor, and Wellbutrin.
So far, I've had no sexual side effects (delayed ejac, anorgasmia) and no sleepiness or fatigue. Way better than Zoloft (which produced all of the above and was the last drug I was taking before Lexapro).
