About SSRIs

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are usually the first medicines tried for depression and anxiety disorders, and are also used for OCD and panic disorder. Escitalopram is sold here as Nexito and Rexipra, fluoxetine as Prodep and Fludac, sertraline as Daxid, paroxetine as Pexep and fluvoxamine as Fluvoxin.

They take a few weeks to work, and early side effects such as nausea often settle. Stopping suddenly can cause withdrawal symptoms, so any change should be agreed with a doctor.
