Celexa is in a class of drugs called selective
serotonin reuptake inhibitors. Celexa affects chemicals
in the brain that may become unbalanced and cause
depression. Celexa is used to treat depression.
Effexor XR is a potent inhibitor of the reuptake of
serotonin and norepinephrine-two neurotransmitters
thought to play important roles in the pathophysiology
of depression. Correcting the imbalance of these two
chemicals may help relieve symptoms of depression.
Fluoxetine is a drug used medically in the treatment
of depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, bulimia
nervosa, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, and many other

Paxil is an agent in a newer class of antidepressant
medication known as selective serotonin reuptake
inhibitors (SSRIs). Depression and anxiety disorders
might be caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain.
One of these chemicals is serotonin, which helps send
electrical signals from one nerve cell to another. In
the process, serotonin is released from one nerve cell
(the sender) and travels to the next (the receiver),
where it is either absorbed or returns back to the
original sender cell.
Paxil CR gives you the powerful relief of the
original Paxil (paroxetine HCl), plus a specially
designed Geomatrix™ tablet that controls the absorption
of the drug. Clinical studies showed that Paxil CR
provides effective symptom relief with a low number of
patients stopping their treatment due to side effects.
Prozac is a drug used medically in the treatment of
depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, bulimia
