A member asked:
Do i need to be worried about anything when switching to different types of anti-depressents?

It depends...: ...on what you are switching from and what you are switching to. It would also depend on your psychiatric condition. A competent psychiatrist should be able to answer your questions in his/her office after a complete evaluation.
