Hi Sleepless Scientist -
Thanks for input. OK ... now I'm confused. My doctor didn't mention anything about a
washout period. He was just like, try stop taking the Lexapro and start taking an equivalent
dose of Zoloft. Why should I "wash out"
It seems like there conflicting information on the web. I found this that says it is fine to just
switch when you convert from one standard SSRI to another?
