Can cirpalex work similiarly to adderal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really at all...: While some of the ssris (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) may not be all that specific and work via norepinephrine as well, escitalopram (lexapro/cirpalex) is pretty specific. This means it is not as activating as Prozac and zoloft (sertraline) (also ssris) that are generally taken in the morning like the adhd medications (adderall/ritalin) which are very activating (via norepinephrine and dopamine).
