I currently take Celexa and have really good prescription coverage. I asked my Dr about the Lexapro and he said it was another "me too" drug.
He compared it to Claritin and Clarinex. He said the insurance companies won't pay for it.
I've read up alot on this and I don't believe him as far as the ME TOO is concerned, but I do wonder about insurance. I thought it didn't matter until Celexa became generic.
