Compare Two Drugs →SSRIs like sertraline (Zoloft) and escitalopram (Lexapro) are the most commonly prescribed due to their effectiveness and relatively mild side effect profile.
Most antidepressants take 4-6 weeks to reach full effectiveness. Some patients notice improvements in sleep and energy within 1-2 weeks.
SSRIs target serotonin only, while SNRIs target both serotonin and norepinephrine. SNRIs may be more effective for anxiety and chronic pain in addition to depression.
