In reply to Zoloft to Lexapro; Cross-taper?, posted by RSS76 on May 27, 2008, at 10:52:34
> I've been on 200mg of Zoloft for the past 2 years. As in the past, I've recently run into SRRI poop out with this med.

> My pdoc wrote me an Rx for Lexapro and advised me to taper down to 50 mg of Zoloft and then introduce 5 mg of Lexapro. Over the past 3 weeks, I've weened myself down to the 50mg of Zoloft, but I'm scared to start the Lexapro for fear of serotonin syndrome.

> Has anyone had any experience going from Zoloft to Lexapro? If so, would you please share the details of how you made the transition?

> Thanks!Sorry to get to your post so late as I have just started posting again. You've probably made the transition by now. I've done the same thing with no problems. It was an effective AD but I suffer from poop out syndrome from them all. I hope it continues to work well and long for you
