A member asked:
After trying celexa and then zoloft, (sertraline) for anxiety & depression, with no response is it clear cut if one should try another ssri, or switch to an snri?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably snri: Snri most likely but everyone is different--some people do better on the older meds some with augmentation etc--if someone in your genetic family has similar sx & is doing well on something that is probably the best thing to try
