A member asked:
When switching over to a new anti dep, will i have to wait the full 4-6 weeks before feeling well again?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Absolutely: It usually takes anywhere from 4-12 weeks for any antidepressant to take effect. You might see some of the effects earlier but the full anti-depressant effect can take up to 12 weeks.
