Hi, I switched from Seroxat to escitalopram. I was in psych hospital at the time. Doc reduced Seroxat from 20mg to 10mg (liquid) and started 5mg escit at same time, I was off seroxat in 5 days and on 10mg escitalopram. I must admit I was terrified of coming off Seroxat after being on it for 14 years but cross tapering to escitalopram caused no signficant problems at all for me.

Good Luck. :flowers:

You're welcome.

Anxiety, panic attacks, agraphobia primarily but also depression.

Good Luck.
