Hi Linkadge and Maxime.
I know this last post was for Maxime, but I couldn't help relating to it. I too was waiting for Lexapro, but gave up and am now trying effexor. I have only been on it for 4 weeks, but I don't think I like it much, I certainly don't like it as much as Celexa. But Celexa made me too tired and upset my stomach too much, so that is why I was waiting for Lexapro.
It really bugs me too, that Staterra, Lexapro and a few other are out in the States but not here in Canada. And yes I know we have some med's that the states doesn't. But the newer ones seem to be bypassing us. I know once Estorra comes out in the states, approx Feb 28, I will be buying it from an american pharmacy, which really pisses me off, because I have extended medical here and wouldn't have to pay half the cost I will have to pay down there.
So I understand your frustration, and I wonder if they are just understaffed, but whatever the reason it sucks for us in Canada anxiously awaiting some relief.
